Introduction
This Ecma Standard defines the ECMAScript 2022 Language. It is the twelfth edition of the ECMAScript Language Specification. Since publication of the first edition in 1997, ECMAScript has grown to be one of the world's most widely used general-purpose programming languages. It is best known as the language embedded in web browsers but has also been widely adopted for server and embedded applications.
ECMAScript is based on several originating technologies, the most well-known being JavaScript (Netscape) and JScript (Microsoft). The language was invented by Brendan Eich at Netscape and first appeared in that company's Navigator 2.0 browser. It has appeared in all subsequent browsers from Netscape and in all browsers from Microsoft starting with Internet Explorer 3.0.
The development of the ECMAScript Language Specification started in November 1996. The first edition of this Ecma Standard was adopted by the Ecma General Assembly of June 1997.
That Ecma Standard was submitted to ISO/IEC JTC 1 for adoption under the fast-track procedure, and approved as international standard ISO/IEC 16262, in April 1998. The Ecma General Assembly of June 1998 approved the second edition of ECMA-262 to keep it fully aligned with ISO/IEC 16262. Changes between the first and the second edition are editorial in nature.
The third edition of the Standard introduced powerful regular expressions, better string handling, new control statements, try/catch exception handling, tighter definition of errors, formatting for numeric output and minor changes in anticipation of future language growth. The third edition of the ECMAScript standard was adopted by the Ecma General Assembly of December 1999 and published as ISO/IEC 16262:2002 in June 2002.
After publication of the third edition, ECMAScript achieved massive adoption in conjunction with the World Wide Web where it has become the programming language that is supported by essentially all web browsers. Significant work was done to develop a fourth edition of ECMAScript. However, that work was not completed and not published as the fourth edition of ECMAScript but some of it was incorporated into the development of the sixth edition.
The fifth edition of ECMAScript (published as ECMA-262 5th edition) codified de facto interpretations of the language specification that have become common among browser implementations and added support for new features that had emerged since the publication of the third edition. Such features include accessor properties, reflective creation and inspection of objects, program control of property attributes, additional array manipulation functions, support for the JSON object encoding format, and a strict mode that provides enhanced error checking and program security. The fifth edition was adopted by the Ecma General Assembly of December 2009.
The fifth edition was submitted to ISO/IEC JTC 1 for adoption under the fast-track procedure, and approved as international standard ISO/IEC 16262:2011. Edition 5.1 of the ECMAScript Standard incorporated minor corrections and is the same text as ISO/IEC 16262:2011. The 5.1 Edition was adopted by the Ecma General Assembly of June 2011.
Focused development of the sixth edition started in 2009, as the fifth edition was being prepared for publication. However, this was preceded by significant experimentation and language enhancement design efforts dating to the publication of the third edition in 1999. In a very real sense, the completion of the sixth edition is the culmination of a fifteen year effort. The goals for this edition included providing better support for large applications, library creation, and for use of ECMAScript as a compilation target for other languages. Some of its major enhancements included modules, class declarations, lexical block scoping, iterators and generators, promises for asynchronous programming, destructuring patterns, and proper tail calls. The ECMAScript library of built-ins was expanded to support additional data abstractions including maps, sets, and arrays of binary numeric values as well as additional support for Unicode supplemental characters in strings and regular expressions. The built-ins were also made extensible via subclassing. The sixth edition provides the foundation for regular, incremental language and library enhancements. The sixth edition was adopted by the General Assembly of June 2015.
ECMAScript 2016 was the first ECMAScript edition released under Ecma TC39's new yearly release cadence and open development process. A plain-text source document was built from the ECMAScript 2015 source document to serve as the base for further development entirely on GitHub. Over the year of this standard's development, hundreds of pull requests and issues were filed representing thousands of bug fixes, editorial fixes and other improvements. Additionally, numerous software tools were developed to aid in this effort including Ecmarkup, Ecmarkdown, and Grammarkdown. ES2016 also included support for a new exponentiation operator and adds a new method to Array.prototype called includes.
ECMAScript 2017 introduced Async Functions, Shared Memory, and Atomics along with smaller language and library enhancements, bug fixes, and editorial updates. Async functions improve the asynchronous programming experience by providing syntax for promise-returning functions. Shared Memory and Atomics introduce a newObject.values, Object.entries, and Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors.
ECMAScript 2018 introduced support for asynchronous iteration via the AsyncIterator protocol and async generators. It also included four new regular expression features: the dotAll flag, named capture groups, Unicode property escapes, and look-behind assertions. Lastly it included object rest and spread properties.
ECMAScript 2019 introduced a few new built-in functions: flat and flatMap on Array.prototype for flattening arrays, Object.fromEntries for directly turning the return value of Object.entries into a new Object, and trimStart and trimEnd on String.prototype as better-named alternatives to the widely implemented but non-standard String.prototype.trimLeft and trimRight built-ins. In addition, it included a few minor updates to syntax and semantics. Updated syntax included optional catch binding parameters and allowing U+2028 (LINE SEPARATOR) and U+2029 (PARAGRAPH SEPARATOR) in string literals to align with JSON. Other updates included requiring that Array.prototype.sort be a stable sort, requiring that JSON.stringify return well-formed UTF-8 regardless of input, and clarifying Function.prototype.toString by requiring that it either return the corresponding original source text or a standard placeholder.
ECMAScript 2020, the 11th edition, introduces the matchAll method for Strings, to produce an iterator for all match objects generated by a global regular expression; import(), a syntax to asynchronously import Modules with a dynamic specifier; BigInt, a new number primitive for working with arbitrary precision integers; Promise.allSettled, a new Promise combinator that does not short-circuit; globalThis, a universal way to access the global this value; dedicated export * as ns from 'module' syntax for use within modules; increased standardization of for-in enumeration order; import.meta, anull or undefined): nullish coalescing, a value selection operator; and optional chaining, a property access and function invocation operator that short-circuits if the value to access/invoke is nullish.
ECMAScript 2021, the 12th edition, introduces the replaceAll method for Strings; Promise.any, a Promise combinator that short-circuits when an input value is fulfilled; AggregateError, a new Error type to represent multiple errors at once; logical assignment operators (??=, &&=, ||=); WeakRef, for referring to a target object without preserving it from garbage collection, and FinalizationRegistry, to manage registration and unregistration of cleanup operations performed when target objects are garbage collected; separators for numeric literals (1_000); and Array.prototype.sort was made more precise, reducing the amount of cases that result in an
Dozens of individuals representing many organizations have made very significant contributions within Ecma TC39 to the development of this edition and to the prior editions. In addition, a vibrant community has emerged supporting TC39's ECMAScript efforts. This community has reviewed numerous drafts, filed thousands of bug reports, performed implementation experiments, contributed test suites, and educated the world-wide developer community about ECMAScript. Unfortunately, it is impossible to identify and acknowledge every person and organization who has contributed to this effort.

Example clause contents.
A conforming implementation of ECMAScript must implement Legacy subclauses, unless they are also marked as Normative Optional. All of the language features and behaviours specified within Legacy subclauses have one or more undesirable characteristics. However, their continued usage in existing applications prevents their removal from this specification. These features are not considered part of the core ECMAScript language.

ECMAScript was originally designed to be used as a scripting language, but has become widely used as a general-purpose programming language. A scripting language is a programming language that is used to manipulate, customize, and automate the facilities of an existing system. In such systems, useful functionality is already available through a user interface, and the scripting language is a mechanism for exposing that functionality to program control. In this way, the existing system is said to provide a

ECMAScript usage has moved beyond simple scripting and it is now used for the full spectrum of programming tasks in many different environments and scales. As the usage of ECMAScript has expanded, so have the features and facilities it provides. ECMAScript is now a fully featured general-purpose programming language.

4.3 ECMAScript Overview
The following is an informal overview of ECMAScript—not all parts of the language are described. This overview is not part of the standard proper.
ECMAScript is object-based: basic language and
ECMAScript defines a collection of built-in objects that round out the definition of ECMAScript entities. These built-in objects include theObject, Function, Boolean, Symbol, and various Error objects; objects that represent and manipulate numeric values including Math, Number, and Date; the text processing objects String and RegExp; objects that are indexed collections of values including Array and nine different kinds of Typed Arrays whose elements all have a specific numeric data representation; keyed collections including Map and Set objects; objects supporting structured data including the JSON object, ArrayBuffer, SharedArrayBuffer, and DataView; objects supporting control abstractions including generator functions and Promise objects; and reflection objects including Proxy and Reflect.
ECMAScript also defines a set of built-in operators. ECMAScript operators include various unary operations, multiplicative operators, additive operators, bitwise shift operators, relational operators, equality operators, binary bitwise operators, binary logical operators, assignment operators, and the comma operator.
Large ECMAScript programs are supported by modules which allow a program to be divided into multiple sequences of statements and declarations. Each module explicitly identifies declarations it uses that need to be provided by other modules and which of its declarations are available for use by other modules.
ECMAScript syntax intentionally resembles Java syntax. ECMAScript syntax is relaxed to enable it to serve as an easy-to-use scripting language. For example, a variable is not required to have its type declared nor are types associated with properties, and defined functions are not required to have their declarations appear textually before calls to them.
4.3.1 Objects
Even though ECMAScript includes syntax for class definitions, ECMAScript objects are not fundamentally class-based such as those in C++, Smalltalk, or Java. Instead objects may be created in various ways including via a literal notation or via constructors which create objects and then execute code that initializes all or part of them by assigning initial values to their properties. Eachnew Date(2009, 11) creates a new Date object. Invoking aDate() produces a string representation of the current date and time rather than an object.
Every object created by a
In a class-based object-oriented language, in general, state is carried by instances, methods are carried by classes, and inheritance is only of structure and behaviour. In ECMAScript, the state and methods are carried by objects, while structure, behaviour, and state are all inherited.
All objects that do not directly contain a particular property that their prototype contains share that property and its value. Figure 1 illustrates this:
CF is anew expressions: cf1, cf2, cf3, cf4, and cf5. Each of these objects contains properties named
Unlike most class-based object languages, properties can be added to objects dynamically by assigning values to them. That is, constructors are not required to name or assign values to all or any of the constructed object's properties. In the above diagram, one could add a new shared property for cf1, cf2, cf3, cf4, and cf5 by assigning a new value to the property in CFp.
Although ECMAScript objects are not inherently class-based, it is often convenient to define class-like abstractions based upon a common pattern of
4.3.2 The Strict Variant of ECMAScript
The ECMAScript Language recognizes the possibility that some users of the language may wish to restrict their usage of some features available in the language. They might do so in the interests of security, to avoid what they consider to be error-prone features, to get enhanced error checking, or for other reasons of their choosing. In support of this possibility, ECMAScript defines a strict variant of the language. The strict variant of the language excludes some specific syntactic and semantic features of the regular ECMAScript language and modifies the detailed semantics of some features. The strict variant also specifies additional error conditions that must be reported by throwing error exceptions in situations that are not specified as errors by the non-strict form of the language.
The strict variant of ECMAScript is commonly referred to as the strict mode of the language. Strict mode selection and use of the strict mode syntax and semantics of ECMAScript is explicitly made at the level of individual ECMAScript source text units as described in
In order to conform to this specification, an ECMAScript implementation must implement both the full unrestricted ECMAScript language and the strict variant of the ECMAScript language as defined by this specification. In addition, an implementation must support the combination of unrestricted and strict mode source text units into a single composite program.

5 Notational Conventions
5.1 Syntactic and Lexical Grammars
5.1.1 Context-Free Grammars
A context-free grammar consists of a number of productions. Each production has an abstract symbol called a nonterminal as its left-hand side, and a sequence of zero or more nonterminal and terminal symbols as its right-hand side. For each grammar, the terminal symbols are drawn from a specified alphabet.
A chain production is a production that has exactly one nonterminal symbol on its right-hand side along with zero or more terminal symbols.
Starting from a sentence consisting of a single distinguished nonterminal, called the goal symbol, a given context-free grammar specifies a language, namely, the (perhaps infinite) set of possible sequences of terminal symbols that can result from repeatedly replacing any nonterminal in the sequence with a right-hand side of a production for which the nonterminal is the left-hand side.
5.1.2 The Lexical and RegExp Grammars
A lexical grammar for ECMAScript is given in clause
Input elements other than white space and comments form the terminal symbols for the syntactic grammar for ECMAScript and are called ECMAScript tokens. These tokens are the reserved words, identifiers, literals, and punctuators of the ECMAScript language. Moreover, line terminators, although not considered to be tokens, also become part of the stream of input elements and guide the process of automatic semicolon insertion (/*…*/ regardless of whether it spans more than one line) is likewise simply discarded if it contains no line terminator; but if a
A RegExp grammar for ECMAScript is given in
Productions of the lexical and RegExp grammars are distinguished by having two colons “::” as separating punctuation. The lexical and RegExp grammars share some productions.
5.1.3 The Numeric String Grammar
Another grammar is used for translating Strings into numeric values. This grammar is similar to the part of the lexical grammar having to do with numeric literals and has as its terminal symbols
Productions of the numeric string grammar are distinguished by having three colons “:::” as punctuation.
5.1.4 The Syntactic Grammar
The syntactic grammar for ECMAScript is given in clauses
When a stream of code points is to be parsed as an ECMAScript
When a parse is successful, it constructs a parse tree, a rooted tree structure in which each node is a Parse Node. Each Parse Node is an instance of a symbol in the grammar; it represents a span of the source text that can be derived from that symbol. The root node of the parse tree, representing the whole of the source text, is an instance of the parse's
New Parse Nodes are instantiated for each invocation of the parser and never reused between parses even of identical source text. Parse Nodes are considered the same Parse Node if and only if they represent the same span of source text, are instances of the same grammar symbol, and resulted from the same parser invocation.
Parsing the same String multiple times will lead to different Parse Nodes. For example, consider:
let str = "1 + 1;";
eval(str);
eval(str);Each call to eval converts the value of str into an ECMAScript source text and performs an independent parse that creates its own separate tree of Parse Nodes. The trees are distinct even though each parse operates upon a source text that was derived from the same String value.
Productions of the syntactic grammar are distinguished by having just one colon “:” as punctuation.
The syntactic grammar as presented in clauses
In certain cases, in order to avoid ambiguities, the syntactic grammar uses generalized productions that permit token sequences that do not form a valid ECMAScript
5.1.5 Grammar Notation
Terminal symbols are shown in fixed width font, both in the productions of the grammars and throughout this specification whenever the text directly refers to such a terminal symbol. These are to appear in a script exactly as written. All terminal symbol code points specified in this way are to be understood as the appropriate Unicode code points from the Basic Latin range, as opposed to any similar-looking code points from other Unicode ranges. A code point in a terminal symbol cannot be expressed by a \
Nonterminal symbols are shown in italic type. The definition of a nonterminal (also called a “production”) is introduced by the name of the nonterminal being defined followed by one or more colons. (The number of colons indicates to which grammar the production belongs.) One or more alternative right-hand sides for the nonterminal then follow on succeeding lines. For example, the syntactic definition:
states that the nonterminalwhile, followed by a left parenthesis token, followed by an
states that an
The subscripted suffix “opt”, which may appear after a terminal or nonterminal, indicates an optional symbol. The alternative containing the optional symbol actually specifies two right-hand sides, one that omits the optional element and one that includes it. This means that:
is a convenient abbreviation for:
and that:
is a convenient abbreviation for:
which in turn is an abbreviation for:
so, in this example, the nonterminal
A production may be parameterized by a subscripted annotation of the form “[parameters]”, which may appear as a suffix to the nonterminal symbol defined by the production. “parameters” may be either a single name or a comma separated list of names. A parameterized production is shorthand for a set of productions defining all combinations of the parameter names, preceded by an underscore, appended to the parameterized nonterminal symbol. This means that:
is a convenient abbreviation for:
and that:
is an abbreviation for:
Multiple parameters produce a combinatory number of productions, not all of which are necessarily referenced in a complete grammar.
References to nonterminals on the right-hand side of a production can also be parameterized. For example:
is equivalent to saying:
and:
is equivalent to:
A nonterminal reference may have both a parameter list and an “opt” suffix. For example:
is an abbreviation for:
Prefixing a parameter name with “?” on a right-hand side nonterminal reference makes that parameter value dependent upon the occurrence of the parameter name on the reference to the current production's left-hand side symbol. For example:
is an abbreviation for:
If a right-hand side alternative is prefixed with “[+parameter]” that alternative is only available if the named parameter was used in referencing the production's nonterminal symbol. If a right-hand side alternative is prefixed with “[~parameter]” that alternative is only available if the named parameter was not used in referencing the production's nonterminal symbol. This means that:
is an abbreviation for:
and that:
is an abbreviation for:
When the words “one of” follow the colon(s) in a grammar definition, they signify that each of the terminal symbols on the following line or lines is an alternative definition. For example, the lexical grammar for ECMAScript contains the production:
which is merely a convenient abbreviation for:
If the phrase “[empty]” appears as the right-hand side of a production, it indicates that the production's right-hand side contains no terminals or nonterminals.
If the phrase “[lookahead = seq]” appears in the right-hand side of a production, it indicates that the production may only be used if the token sequence seq is a prefix of the immediately following input token sequence. Similarly, “[lookahead ∈ set]”, where set is a finite nonempty set of token sequences, indicates that the production may only be used if some element of set is a prefix of the immediately following token sequence. For convenience, the set can also be written as a nonterminal, in which case it represents the set of all token sequences to which that nonterminal could expand. It is considered an editorial error if the nonterminal could expand to infinitely many distinct token sequences.
These conditions may be negated. “[lookahead ≠ seq]” indicates that the containing production may only be used if seq is not a prefix of the immediately following input token sequence, and “[lookahead ∉ set]” indicates that the production may only be used if no element of set is a prefix of the immediately following token sequence.
As an example, given the definitions:
the definition:
matches either the letter n followed by one or more decimal digits the first of which is even, or a decimal digit not followed by another decimal digit.
Note that when these phrases are used in the syntactic grammar, it may not be possible to unambiguously identify the immediately following token sequence because determining later tokens requires knowing which lexical
If the phrase “[no
indicates that the production may not be used if athrow token and the
Unless the presence of a
When an alternative in a production of the lexical grammar or the numeric string grammar appears to be a multi-code point token, it represents the sequence of code points that would make up such a token.
The right-hand side of a production may specify that certain expansions are not permitted by using the phrase “but not” and then indicating the expansions to be excluded. For example, the production:
means that the nonterminal
Finally, a few nonterminal symbols are described by a descriptive phrase in sans-serif type in cases where it would be impractical to list all the alternatives:
5.2 Algorithm Conventions
The specification often uses a numbered list to specify steps in an algorithm. These algorithms are used to precisely specify the required semantics of ECMAScript language constructs. The algorithms are not intended to imply the use of any specific implementation technique. In practice, there may be more efficient algorithms available to implement a given feature.
Algorithms may be explicitly parameterized with an ordered, comma-separated sequence of alias names which may be used within the algorithm steps to reference the argument passed in that position. Optional parameters are denoted with surrounding brackets ([ , name ]) and are no different from required parameters within algorithm steps. A rest parameter may appear at the end of a parameter list, denoted with leading ellipsis (, ...name). The rest parameter captures all of the arguments provided following the required and optional parameters into a
Algorithm steps may be subdivided into sequential substeps. Substeps are indented and may themselves be further divided into indented substeps. Outline numbering conventions are used to identify substeps with the first level of substeps labelled with lower case alphabetic characters and the second level of substeps labelled with lower case roman numerals. If more than three levels are required these rules repeat with the fourth level using numeric labels. For example:
- Top-level step
- Substep.
- Substep.
- Subsubstep.
- Subsubsubstep
- Subsubsubsubstep
- Subsubsubsubsubstep
- Subsubsubsubstep
- Subsubsubstep
- Subsubstep.
A step or substep may be written as an “if” predicate that conditions its substeps. In this case, the substeps are only applied if the predicate is true. If a step or substep begins with the word “else”, it is a predicate that is the negation of the preceding “if” predicate step at the same level.
A step may specify the iterative application of its substeps.
A step that begins with “Assert:” asserts an invariant condition of its algorithm. Such assertions are used to make explicit algorithmic invariants that would otherwise be implicit. Such assertions add no additional semantic requirements and hence need not be checked by an implementation. They are used simply to clarify algorithms.
Algorithm steps may declare named aliases for any value using the form “Let x be someValue”. These aliases are reference-like in that both x and someValue refer to the same underlying data and modifications to either are visible to both. Algorithm steps that want to avoid this reference-like behaviour should explicitly make a copy of the right-hand side: “Let x be a copy of someValue” creates a shallow copy of someValue.
Once declared, an alias may be referenced in any subsequent steps and must not be referenced from steps prior to the alias's declaration. Aliases may be modified using the form “Set x to someOtherValue”.
5.2.1 Abstract Operations
In order to facilitate their use in multiple parts of this specification, some algorithms, called abstract operations, are named and written in parameterized functional form so that they may be referenced by name from within other algorithms. Abstract operations are typically referenced using a functional application style such as OperationName(arg1, arg2). Some abstract operations are treated as polymorphically dispatched methods of class-like specification abstractions. Such method-like abstract operations are typically referenced using a method application style such as someValue.OperationName(arg1, arg2).
5.2.2 Syntax-Directed Operations
A syntax-directed operation is a named operation whose definition consists of algorithms, each of which is associated with one or more productions from one of the ECMAScript grammars. A production that has multiple alternative definitions will typically have a distinct algorithm for each alternative. When an algorithm is associated with a grammar production, it may reference the terminal and nonterminal symbols of the production alternative as if they were parameters of the algorithm. When used in this manner, nonterminal symbols refer to the actual alternative definition that is matched when parsing the source text. The source text matched by a grammar production is the portion of the source text that starts at the beginning of the first terminal that participated in the match and ends at the end of the last terminal that participated in the match.
When an algorithm is associated with a production alternative, the alternative is typically shown without any “[ ]” grammar annotations. Such annotations should only affect the syntactic recognition of the alternative and have no effect on the associated semantics for the alternative.
Syntax-directed operations are invoked with a parse node and, optionally, other parameters by using the conventions on steps
- Let status be SyntaxDirectedOperation of
SomeNonTerminal . - Let someParseNode be the parse of some source text.
- Perform SyntaxDirectedOperation of someParseNode.
- Perform SyntaxDirectedOperation of someParseNode passing
"value" as the argument.
Unless explicitly specified otherwise, all chain productions have an implicit definition for every operation that might be applied to that production's left-hand side nonterminal. The implicit definition simply reapplies the same operation with the same parameters, if any, to the
but the Evaluation operation does not associate an algorithm with that production. In that case, the Evaluation operation implicitly includes an association of the form:
Runtime Semantics: Evaluation
- Return the result of evaluating
StatementList .
5.2.3 Runtime Semantics
Algorithms which specify semantics that must be called at runtime are called runtime semantics. Runtime semantics are defined by
5.2.3.1 Implicit Completion Values
The algorithms of this specification often implicitly return
- Return
"Infinity" .
means the same thing as:
- Return
NormalCompletion ("Infinity" ).
However, if the value expression of a “return” statement is a

Assert : completionRecord is aCompletion Record .- Return completionRecord as the
Completion Record of this abstract operation.
A “return” statement without a value in an algorithm step means the same thing as:
- Return

5.2.3.2 Throw an Exception
Algorithms steps that say to throw an exception, such as
- Throw a
TypeError exception.
mean the same things as:
- Return
ThrowCompletion (a newly createdTypeError object).
5.2.3.3 ReturnIfAbrupt
Algorithms steps that say or are otherwise equivalent to:
ReturnIfAbrupt (argument).
mean the same thing as:
- If argument is an
abrupt completion , return argument. - Else if argument is a
Completion Record , set argument to argument.[[Value]].
Algorithms steps that say or are otherwise equivalent to:
ReturnIfAbrupt (AbstractOperation()).
mean the same thing as:
- Let hygienicTemp be AbstractOperation().
- If hygienicTemp is an
abrupt completion , return hygienicTemp. - Else if hygienicTemp is a
Completion Record , set hygienicTemp to hygienicTemp.[[Value]].
Where hygienicTemp is ephemeral and visible only in the steps pertaining to ReturnIfAbrupt.
Algorithms steps that say or are otherwise equivalent to:
- Let result be AbstractOperation(
ReturnIfAbrupt (argument)).
mean the same thing as:
- If argument is an
abrupt completion , return argument. - If argument is a
Completion Record , set argument to argument.[[Value]]. - Let result be AbstractOperation(argument).
5.2.3.4 ReturnIfAbrupt Shorthands
Invocations of? indicate that
- ? OperationName().
is equivalent to the following step:
ReturnIfAbrupt (OperationName()).
Similarly, for method application style, the step:
- ? someValue.OperationName().
is equivalent to:
ReturnIfAbrupt (someValue.OperationName()).
Similarly, prefix ! is used to indicate that the following invocation of an abstract or syntax-directed operation will never return an
- Let val be ! OperationName().
is equivalent to the following steps:
- Let val be OperationName().
Assert : val is never anabrupt completion .- If val is a
Completion Record , set val to val.[[Value]].
Syntax-directed operations for! or ? before the invocation of the operation:
- Perform ! SyntaxDirectedOperation of
NonTerminal .
5.2.4 Static Semantics
Context-free grammars are not sufficiently powerful to express all the rules that define whether a stream of input elements form a valid ECMAScript
Static Semantic Rules have names and typically are defined using an algorithm. Named Static Semantic Rules are associated with grammar productions and a production that has multiple alternative definitions will typically have for each alternative a distinct algorithm for each applicable named static semantic rule.
A special kind of static semantic rule is an Early Error Rule.
5.2.5 Mathematical Operations
This specification makes reference to these kinds of numeric values:
- Mathematical values: Arbitrary real numbers, used as the default numeric type.
- Extended mathematical values: Mathematical values together with +∞ and -∞.
- Numbers:
IEEE 754-2019 double-precision floating point values. - BigInts: ECMAScript values representing arbitrary integers in a one-to-one correspondence.
In the language of this specification, numerical values are distinguished among different numeric kinds using subscript suffixes. The subscript 𝔽 refers to Numbers, and the subscript ℤ refers to BigInts. Numeric values without a subscript suffix refer to mathematical values.
Numeric operators such as +, ×, =, and ≥ refer to those operations as determined by the type of the operands. When applied to mathematical values, the operators refer to the usual mathematical operations. When applied to Numbers, the operators refer to the relevant operations within
In general, when this specification refers to a numerical value, such as in the phrase, "the length of y" or "the

In this specification, ECMAScript language values are displayed inFunction.prototype.apply or let n = 42;.
Values which are internal to the specification and not directly observable from ECMAScript code are indicated with a
6 ECMAScript Data Types and Values
Algorithms within this specification manipulate values each of which has an associated type. The possible value types are exactly those defined in this clause. Types are further subclassified into ECMAScript language types and specification types.
Within this specification, the notation “Type(x)” is used as shorthand for “the type of x” where “type” refers to the ECMAScript language and specification types defined in this clause. When the term “empty” is used as if it was naming a value, it is equivalent to saying “no value of any type”.
6.1 ECMAScript Language Types
An ECMAScript language type corresponds to values that are directly manipulated by an ECMAScript programmer using the ECMAScript language. The ECMAScript language types are Undefined, Null, Boolean, String, Symbol, Number, BigInt, and Object. An ECMAScript language value is a value that is characterized by an ECMAScript language type.
6.1.1 The Undefined Type
The Undefined type has exactly one value, called
6.1.2 The Null Type
The Null type has exactly one value, called
6.1.3 The Boolean Type
The Boolean type represents a logical entity having two values, called
6.1.4 The String Type
The String type is the set of all ordered sequences of zero or more 16-bit unsigned
ECMAScript operations that do not interpret String contents apply no further semantics. Operations that do interpret String values treat each element as a single UTF-16 code unit. However, ECMAScript does not restrict the value of or relationships between these code units, so operations that further interpret String contents as sequences of Unicode code points encoded in UTF-16 must account for ill-formed subsequences. Such operations apply special treatment to every code unit with a numeric value in the inclusive range 0xD800 to 0xDBFF (defined by the Unicode Standard as a leading surrogate, or more formally as a high-surrogate code unit) and every code unit with a numeric value in the inclusive range 0xDC00 to 0xDFFF (defined as a trailing surrogate, or more formally as a low-surrogate code unit) using the following rules:
- A code unit that is not a
leading surrogate and not atrailing surrogate is interpreted as a code point with the same value. - A sequence of two code units, where the first code unit c1 is a
leading surrogate and the second code unit c2 atrailing surrogate , is a surrogate pair and is interpreted as a code point with the value (c1 - 0xD800) × 0x400 + (c2 - 0xDC00) + 0x10000. (See11.1.3 ) - A code unit that is a
leading surrogate ortrailing surrogate , but is not part of asurrogate pair , is interpreted as a code point with the same value.
The function String.prototype.normalize (seeString.prototype.localeCompare (see
The rationale behind this design was to keep the implementation of Strings as simple and high-performing as possible. If ECMAScript source text is in Normalized Form C, string literals are guaranteed to also be normalized, as long as they do not contain any Unicode escape sequences.
In this specification, the phrase "the string-concatenation of A, B, ..." (where each argument is a String value, a code unit, or a sequence of code units) denotes the String value whose sequence of code units is the concatenation of the code units (in order) of each of the arguments (in order).
The phrase "the substring of S from inclusiveStart to exclusiveEnd" (where S is a String value or a sequence of code units and inclusiveStart and exclusiveEnd are integers) denotes the String value consisting of the consecutive code units of S beginning at index inclusiveStart and ending immediately before index exclusiveEnd (which is the empty String when inclusiveStart = exclusiveEnd). If the "to" suffix is omitted, the length of S is used as the value of exclusiveEnd.
6.1.4.1 StringIndexOf ( string, searchValue, fromIndex )
The abstract operation StringIndexOf takes arguments string (a String), searchValue (a String), and fromIndex (a non-negative
Assert :Type (string) is String.Assert :Type (searchValue) is String.Assert : fromIndex is a non-negativeinteger .- Let len be the length of string.
- If searchValue is the empty String and fromIndex ≤ len, return fromIndex.
- Let searchLen be the length of searchValue.
- For each
integer i starting with fromIndex such that i ≤ len - searchLen, in ascending order, do- Let candidate be the
substring of string from i to i + searchLen. - If candidate is the same sequence of code units as searchValue, return i.
- Let candidate be the
- Return -1.
If searchValue is the empty String and fromIndex is less than or equal to the length of string, this algorithm returns fromIndex. The empty String is effectively found at every position within a string, including after the last code unit.
This algorithm always returns -1 if fromIndex > the length of string.
6.1.5 The Symbol Type
The Symbol type is the set of all non-String values that may be used as the key of an Object property (
Each possible Symbol value is unique and immutable.
Each Symbol value immutably holds an associated value called [[Description]] that is either
6.1.5.1 Well-Known Symbols
Well-known symbols are built-in Symbol values that are explicitly referenced by algorithms of this specification. They are typically used as the keys of properties whose values serve as extension points of a specification algorithm. Unless otherwise specified, well-known symbols values are shared by all realms (
Within this specification a well-known symbol is referred to by using a notation of the form @@name, where “name” is one of the values listed in

6.1.6 Numeric Types
ECMAScript has two built-in numeric types: Number and BigInt. In this specification, every numeric type T contains a multiplicative identity value denoted T::unit. The specification types also have the following

| T::bitwiseOR(x, y) | x | y | T | |
| T::toString(x) | String(x) | Many expressions and built-in functions, via | String |
The T::unit value and T::op operations are not a part of the ECMAScript language; they are defined here solely to aid the specification of the semantics of the ECMAScript language. Other
Because the numeric types are in general not convertible without loss of precision or truncation, the ECMAScript language provides no implicit conversion among these types. Programmers must explicitly call Number and BigInt functions to convert among types when calling a function which requires another type.
The first and subsequent editions of ECMAScript have provided, for certain operators, implicit numeric conversions that could lose precision or truncate. These legacy implicit conversions are maintained for backward compatibility, but not provided for BigInt in order to minimize opportunity for programmer error, and to leave open the option of generalized value types in a future edition.

𝔽 (s × 10n - k) is x, and k is as small as possible. Note that k is the number of digits in the decimal representation of s, that s is not divisible by 10, and that the least significant digit of s is not necessarily uniquely determined by these criteria. - If k ≤ n ≤ 21, return the
string-concatenation of:- the code units of the k digits of the decimal representation of s (in order, with no leading zeroes)
- n - k occurrences of the code unit 0x0030 (DIGIT ZERO)
- If 0 < n ≤ 21, return the
string-concatenation of:- the code units of the most significant n digits of the decimal representation of s

- If -6 < n ≤ 0, return the
string-concatenation of:- the code unit 0x0030 (DIGIT ZERO)
- the code unit 0x002E (FULL STOP)

- the code unit 0x002E (FULL STOP)
- the code units of the remaining k - 1 digits of the decimal representation of s
- the code unit 0x0065 (LATIN SMALL LETTER E)
- the code unit 0x002B (PLUS SIGN) or the code unit 0x002D (HYPHEN-MINUS) according to whether n - 1 is positive or negative
- the code units of the decimal representation of the
integer abs (n - 1) (with no leading zeroes)
The following observations may be useful as guidelines for implementations, but are not part of the normative requirements of this Standard:
- If x is any
Number value other than-0 𝔽, thenToNumber (ToString (x)) is exactly the sameNumber value as x. - The least significant digit of s is not always uniquely determined by the requirements listed in step
5 .
For implementations that provide more accurate conversions than required by the rules above, it is recommended that the following alternative version of step
- Otherwise, let n, k, and s be integers such that k ≥ 1, 10k - 1 ≤ s < 10k,
𝔽 (s × 10n - k) is x, and k is as small as possible. If there are multiple possibilities for s, choose the value of s for which s × 10n - k is closest in value toℝ (x). If there are two such possible values of s, choose the one that is even. Note that k is the number of digits in the decimal representation of s and that s is not divisible by 10.

6.1.7 The Object Type
An Object is logically a collection of properties. Each property is either a data property, or an accessor property:
- A data property associates a key value with an
ECMAScript language value and a set of Boolean attributes. - An accessor property associates a key value with one or two accessor functions, and a set of Boolean attributes. The accessor functions are used to store or retrieve an
ECMAScript language value that is associated with the property.
Properties are identified using key values. A property key value is either an ECMAScript String value or a Symbol value. All String and Symbol values, including the empty String, are valid as property keys. A property name is a property key that is a String value.
An integer index is a String-valued property key that is a canonical numeric String (see
Property keys are used to access properties and their values. There are two kinds of access for properties: get and set, corresponding to value retrieval and assignment, respectively. The properties accessible via get and set access includes both own properties that are a direct part of an object and inherited properties which are provided by another associated object via a property inheritance relationship. Inherited properties may be either own or inherited properties of the associated object. Each own property of an object must each have a key value that is distinct from the key values of the other own properties of that object.
All objects are logically collections of properties, but there are multiple forms of objects that differ in their semantics for accessing and manipulating their properties. Please see
6.1.7.1 Property Attributes
Attributes are used in this specification to define and explain the state of Object properties. A
| Attribute Name | Value Domain | Description |
|---|---|---|
| [[Value]] | Any | The value retrieved by a get access of the property. |
| [[Writable]] | Boolean | If |

6.1.7.2 Object Internal Methods and Internal Slots
The actual semantics of objects, in ECMAScript, are specified via algorithms called internal methods. Each object in an ECMAScript engine is associated with a set of internal methods that defines its runtime behaviour. These internal methods are not part of the ECMAScript language. They are defined by this specification purely for expository purposes. However, each object within an implementation of ECMAScript must behave as specified by the internal methods associated with it. The exact manner in which this is accomplished is determined by the implementation.
Internal method names are polymorphic. This means that different object values may perform different algorithms when a common internal method name is invoked upon them. That actual object upon which an internal method is invoked is the “target” of the invocation. If, at runtime, the implementation of an algorithm attempts to use an internal method of an object that the object does not support, a
Internal slots correspond to internal state that is associated with objects and used by various ECMAScript specification algorithms. Internal slots are not object properties and they are not inherited. Depending upon the specific internal slot specification, such state may consist of values of any
All objects have an internal slot named [[PrivateElements]], which is a
Internal methods and internal slots are identified within this specification using names enclosed in double square brackets [[ ]].
An ordinary object is an object that satisfies all of the following criteria:
- For the internal methods listed in
Table 6 , the object uses those defined in10.1 . - If the object has a [[Call]] internal method, it uses the one defined in
10.2.1 . - If the object has a [[Construct]] internal method, it uses the one defined in
10.2.2 .
An exotic object is an object that is not an
This specification recognizes different kinds of exotic objects by those objects' internal methods. An object that is behaviourally equivalent to a particular kind of
The “Signature” column of
In addition to its parameters, an internal method always has access to the object that is the target of the method invocation.
An internal method implicitly returns a

The semantics of the essential internal methods for ordinary objects and standard exotic objects are specified in clause
6.1.7.3 Invariants of the Essential Internal Methods
The Internal Methods of Objects of an ECMAScript engine must conform to the list of invariants specified below. Ordinary ECMAScript Objects as well as all standard exotic objects in this specification maintain these invariants. ECMAScript Proxy objects maintain these invariants by means of runtime checks on the result of traps invoked on the [[ProxyHandler]] object.
Any implementation provided exotic objects must also maintain these invariants for those objects. Violation of these invariants may cause ECMAScript code to have unpredictable behaviour and create security issues. However, violation of these invariants must never compromise the memory safety of an implementation.
An implementation must not allow these invariants to be circumvented in any manner such as by providing alternative interfaces that implement the functionality of the essential internal methods without enforcing their invariants.
Definitions:
- The target of an internal method is the object upon which the internal method is called.
- A target is non-extensible if it has been observed to return
false from its [[IsExtensible]] internal method, ortrue from its [[PreventExtensions]] internal method. - A non-existent property is a property that does not exist as an own property on a non-extensible target.
- All references to
SameValue are according to the definition of theSameValue algorithm.
Return value:
The value returned by any internal method must be a
- [[Type]] =
normal , [[Target]] =empty , and [[Value]] = a value of the "normal return type" shown below for that internal method, or - [[Type]] =
throw , [[Target]] =empty , and [[Value]] = anyECMAScript language value .
An internal method must not return a completion with [[Type]] =
[[GetPrototypeOf]] ( )
- The normal return type is either Object or Null.
- If target is non-extensible, and [[GetPrototypeOf]] returns a value V, then any future calls to [[GetPrototypeOf]] should return the
SameValue as V.
An object's prototype chain should have finite length (that is, starting from any object, recursively applying the [[GetPrototypeOf]] internal method to its result should eventually lead to the value
[[SetPrototypeOf]] ( V )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
- If target is non-extensible, [[SetPrototypeOf]] must return
false , unless V is theSameValue as the target's observed [[GetPrototypeOf]] value.
[[IsExtensible]] ( )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
- If [[IsExtensible]] returns
false , all future calls to [[IsExtensible]] on the target must returnfalse .
[[PreventExtensions]] ( )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
- If [[PreventExtensions]] returns
true , all future calls to [[IsExtensible]] on the target must returnfalse and the target is now considered non-extensible.
[[GetOwnProperty]] ( P )
- The normal return type is either
Property Descriptor or Undefined. - If the Type of the return value is
Property Descriptor , the return value must be a fully populatedProperty Descriptor . - If P is described as a non-configurable, non-writable own
data property , all future calls to [[GetOwnProperty]] ( P ) must returnProperty Descriptor whose [[Value]] isSameValue as P's [[Value]] attribute. - If P's attributes other than [[Writable]] may change over time or if the property might be deleted, then P's [[Configurable]] attribute must be
true . - If the [[Writable]] attribute may change from
false totrue , then the [[Configurable]] attribute must betrue . - If the target is non-extensible and P is non-existent, then all future calls to [[GetOwnProperty]] (P) on the target must describe P as non-existent (i.e. [[GetOwnProperty]] (P) must return
undefined ).
As a consequence of the third invariant, if a property is described as a
[[DefineOwnProperty]] ( P, Desc )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
- [[DefineOwnProperty]] must return
false if P has previously been observed as a non-configurable own property of the target, unless either:- P is a writable
data property . A non-configurable writabledata property can be changed into a non-configurable non-writabledata property . - All attributes of Desc are the
SameValue as P's attributes.
- P is a writable
- [[DefineOwnProperty]] (P, Desc) must return
false if target is non-extensible and P is a non-existent own property. That is, a non-extensible target object cannot be extended with new properties.
[[HasProperty]] ( P )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
- If P was previously observed as a non-configurable own data or
accessor property of the target, [[HasProperty]] must returntrue .
[[Get]] ( P, Receiver )
- The normal return type is any
ECMAScript language type . - If P was previously observed as a non-configurable, non-writable own
data property of the target with value V, then [[Get]] must return theSameValue as V. - If P was previously observed as a non-configurable own
accessor property of the target whose [[Get]] attribute isundefined , the [[Get]] operation must returnundefined .
[[Set]] ( P, V, Receiver )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
- If P was previously observed as a non-configurable, non-writable own
data property of the target, then [[Set]] must returnfalse unless V is theSameValue as P's [[Value]] attribute. - If P was previously observed as a non-configurable own
accessor property of the target whose [[Set]] attribute isundefined , the [[Set]] operation must returnfalse .
[[Delete]] ( P )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
- If P was previously observed as a non-configurable own data or
accessor property of the target, [[Delete]] must returnfalse .
[[OwnPropertyKeys]] ( )
- The normal return type is
List . - The returned
List must not contain any duplicate entries. - The Type of each element of the returned
List is either String or Symbol. - The returned
List must contain at least the keys of all non-configurable own properties that have previously been observed. - If the target is non-extensible, the returned
List must contain only the keys of all own properties of the target that are observable using [[GetOwnProperty]].
[[Call]] ( )
- The normal return type is any
ECMAScript language type .
[[Construct]] ( )
- The normal return type is Object.
- The target must also have a [[Call]] internal method.

6.2 ECMAScript Specification Types
A specification type corresponds to meta-values that are used within algorithms to describe the semantics of ECMAScript language constructs and ECMAScript language types. The specification types include Reference,
6.2.1 The List and Record Specification Types
The List type is used to explain the evaluation of argument lists (seenew expressions, in function calls, and in other algorithms where a simple ordered list of values is needed. Values of the List type are simply ordered sequences of list elements containing the individual values. These sequences may be of any length. The elements of a list may be randomly accessed using 0-origin indices. For notational convenience an array-like syntax can be used to access List elements. For example, arguments[2] is shorthand for saying the 3rd element of the List arguments.
When an algorithm iterates over the elements of a List without specifying an order, the order used is the order of the elements in the List.
For notational convenience within this specification, a literal syntax can be used to express a new List value. For example, « 1, 2 » defines a List value that has two elements each of which is initialized to a specific value. A new empty List can be expressed as « ».
In this specification, the phrase "the list-concatenation of A, B, ..." (where each argument is a possibly empty List) denotes a new List value whose elements are the concatenation of the elements (in order) of each of the arguments (in order).
The Record type is used to describe data aggregations within the algorithms of this specification. A Record type value consists of one or more named fields. The value of each field is either an ECMAScript value or an abstract value represented by a name associated with the Record type. Field names are always enclosed in double brackets, for example [[Value]].
For notational convenience within this specification, an object literal-like syntax can be used to express a Record value. For example, { [[Field1]]: 42, [[Field2]]:
In specification text and algorithms, dot notation may be used to refer to a specific field of a Record value. For example, if R is the record shown in the previous paragraph then R.[[Field2]] is shorthand for “the field of R named [[Field2]]”.
Schema for commonly used Record field combinations may be named, and that name may be used as a prefix to a literal Record value to identify the specific kind of aggregations that is being described. For example: PropertyDescriptor { [[Value]]: 42, [[Writable]]:
6.2.2 The Set and Relation Specification Types
The Set type is used to explain a collection of unordered elements for use in the
The Relation type is used to explain constraints on Sets. Values of the Relation type are Sets of ordered pairs of values from its value domain. For example, a Relation on events is a set of ordered pairs of events. For a Relation R and two values a and b in the value domain of R, a R b is shorthand for saying the ordered pair (a, b) is a member of R. A Relation is least with respect to some conditions when it is the smallest Relation that satisfies those conditions.
A strict partial order is a Relation value R that satisfies the following.
For all a, b, and c in R's domain:
- It is not the case that a R a, and
- If a R b and b R c, then a R c.
The two properties above are called irreflexivity and transitivity, respectively.
A strict total order is a Relation value R that satisfies the following.
For all a, b, and c in R's domain:
- a is identical to b or a R b or b R a, and
- It is not the case that a R a, and
- If a R b and b R c, then a R c.
The three properties above are called totality, irreflexivity, and transitivity, respectively.
6.2.3 The Completion Record Specification Type
The Completion type is abreak, continue, return and throw) that perform nonlocal transfers of control.
Values of the Completion type are
| Field Name | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| [[Type]] | One of | The type of completion that occurred. |
| [[Value]] | any | The value that was produced. |
| [[Target]] | any ECMAScript string or | The target label for directed control transfers. |
The following shorthand terms are sometimes used to refer to completions.
- normal completion refers to any completion with a [[Type]] value of
normal . - break completion refers to any completion with a [[Type]] value of
break . - continue completion refers to any completion with a [[Type]] value of
continue . - return completion refers to any completion with a [[Type]] value of
return . - throw completion refers to any completion with a [[Type]] value of
throw . - abrupt completion refers to any completion with a [[Type]] value other than
normal .
Callable objects that are defined in this specification only return a normal completion or a throw completion. Returning any other kind of completion is considered an editorial error.
6.2.3.1 Await
Algorithm steps that say
- Let completion be
Await (value).
mean the same thing as:

6.2.7 The Abstract Closure Specification Type
The Abstract Closure specification type is used to refer to algorithm steps together with a collection of values. Abstract Closures are meta-values and are invoked using function application style such as closure(arg1, arg2). Like
In algorithm steps that create an Abstract Closure, values are captured with the verb "capture" followed by a list of aliases. When an Abstract Closure is created, it captures the value that is associated with each alias at that time. In steps that specify the algorithm to be performed when an Abstract Closure is called, each captured value is referred to by the alias that was used to capture the value.
If an Abstract Closure returns a

The Data Block specification type is used to describe a distinct and mutable sequence of byte-sized (8 bit) numeric values. A byte value is an
For notational convenience within this specification, an array-like syntax can be used to access the individual bytes of a Data Block value. This notation presents a Data Block value as a 0-origined
A data block that resides in memory that can be referenced from multiple agents concurrently is designated a Shared Data Block. A Shared Data Block has an identity (for the purposes of equality testing Shared Data Block values) that is address-free: it is tied not to the virtual addresses the block is mapped to in any process, but to the set of locations in memory that the block represents. Two data blocks are equal only if the sets of the locations they contain are equal; otherwise, they are not equal and the intersection of the sets of locations they contain is empty. Finally, Shared Data Blocks can be distinguished from Data Blocks.
The semantics of Shared Data Blocks is defined using Shared Data Block events by the
Shared Data Block events are modeled by Records, defined in the

The comparison of Strings uses a simple lexicographic ordering on sequences of code unit values. There is no attempt to use the more complex, semantically oriented definitions of character or string equality and collating order defined in the Unicode specification. Therefore String values that are canonically equal according to the Unicode standard could test as unequal. In effect this algorithm assumes that both Strings are already in normalized form. Also, note that for strings containing supplementary characters, lexicographic ordering on sequences of UTF-16 code unit values differs from that on sequences of code point values.

Assert :Type (iteratorRecord.[[Iterator]]) is Object.Assert : completion is aCompletion Record .- Let iterator be iteratorRecord.[[Iterator]].
- Let innerResult be
GetMethod (iterator,"return" ). - If innerResult.[[Type]] is
normal , then- Let return be innerResult.[[Value]].
- If return is
undefined , returnCompletion (completion). - Set innerResult to
Call (return, iterator). - If innerResult.[[Type]] is
normal , set innerResult toAwait (innerResult.[[Value]]).
- If completion.[[Type]] is
throw , returnCompletion (completion). - If innerResult.[[Type]] is
throw , returnCompletion (innerResult). - If
Type (innerResult.[[Value]]) is not Object, throw aTypeError exception. - Return
Completion (completion).
7.4.8 CreateIterResultObject ( value, done )
The abstract operation CreateIterResultObject takes arguments value and done. It creates an object that supports the IteratorResult interface. It performs the following steps when called:
Assert :Type (done) is Boolean.- Let obj be !
OrdinaryObjectCreate (%Object.prototype% ). - Perform !
CreateDataPropertyOrThrow (obj,"value" , value). - Perform !
CreateDataPropertyOrThrow (obj,"done" , done). - Return obj.
7.4.9 CreateListIteratorRecord ( list )
The abstract operation CreateListIteratorRecord takes argument list. It creates an Iterator (next method returns the successive elements of list. It performs the following steps when called:
- Let closure be a new
Abstract Closure with no parameters that captures list and performs the following steps when called:- For each element E of list, do
- Perform ?
Yield (E).
- Perform ?
- Return
undefined .
- For each element E of list, do
- Let iterator be !
CreateIteratorFromClosure (closure,empty ,%IteratorPrototype% ). - Return
Record { [[Iterator]]: iterator, [[NextMethod]]: %GeneratorFunction.prototype.prototype.next%, [[Done]]:false }.
The list iterator object is never directly accessible to ECMAScript code.
7.4.10 IterableToList ( items [ , method ] )
The abstract operation IterableToList takes argument items and optional argument method. It performs the following steps when called:
- If method is present, then
- Let iteratorRecord be ?
GetIterator (items,sync , method).
- Let iteratorRecord be ?
- Else,
- Let iteratorRecord be ?
GetIterator (items,sync ).
- Let iteratorRecord be ?
- Let values be a new empty
List . - Let next be
true . - Repeat, while next is not
false ,- Set next to ?
IteratorStep (iteratorRecord). - If next is not
false , then- Let nextValue be ?
IteratorValue (next). - Append nextValue to the end of the
List values.
- Let nextValue be ?
- Set next to ?
- Return values.

Environment Record is a specification type used to define the association of
Every Environment Record has an [[OuterEnv]] field, which is either
Environment Records are purely specification mechanisms and need not correspond to any specific artefact of an ECMAScript implementation. It is impossible for an ECMAScript program to directly access or manipulate such values.
9.1.1 The Environment Record Type Hierarchy
Environment Records can be thought of as existing in a simple object-oriented hierarchy where
Environment Record (abstract)A
declarative Environment Record is used to define the effect of ECMAScript language syntactic elements such asFunctionDeclaration s,VariableDeclaration s, andCatch clauses that directly associate identifier bindings with ECMAScript language values.A
function Environment Record corresponds to the invocation of an ECMAScriptfunction object , and contains bindings for the top-level declarations within that function. It may establish a newthisbinding. It also captures the state necessary to supportsupermethod invocations.A
module Environment Record contains the bindings for the top-level declarations of aModule . It also contains the bindings that are explicitly imported by theModule . Its [[OuterEnv]] is aglobal Environment Record .
An
object Environment Record is used to define the effect of ECMAScript elements such asWithStatement that associate identifier bindings with the properties of some object.A
global Environment Record is used forScript global declarations. It does not have an outer environment; its [[OuterEnv]] isnull . It may be prepopulated with identifier bindings and it includes an associatedglobal object whose properties provide some of the global environment's identifier bindings. As ECMAScript code is executed, additional properties may be added to theglobal object and the initial properties may be modified.

The
An implementation of HostCallJobCallback must conform to the following requirements:

The values of [[IsLockFree1]] and [[IsLockFree2]] are not necessarily determined by the hardware, but may also reflect implementation choices that can vary over time and between ECMAScript implementations.
There is no [[IsLockFree4]] property: 4-byte atomic operations are always lock-free.
In practice, if an atomic operation is implemented with any type of lock the operation is not lock-free. Lock-free does not imply wait-free: there is no upper bound on how many machine steps may be required to complete a lock-free atomic operation.
That an atomic access of size n is lock-free does not imply anything about the (perceived) atomicity of non-atomic accesses of size n, specifically, non-atomic accesses may still be performed as a sequence of several separate memory accesses. See

9.8 Agent Clusters
An agent cluster is a maximal set of agents that can communicate by operating on shared memory.
Programs within different agents may share memory by unspecified means. At a minimum, the backing memory for SharedArrayBuffer objects can be shared among the agents in the cluster.
There may be agents that can communicate by message passing that cannot share memory; they are never in the same agent cluster.

If different agents within an agent cluster have different values of [[LittleEndian]] it becomes hard to use shared memory for multi-byte data.

agent with a dedicatedexecuting thread eventually makes forward progress - in a set of agents that share an

9.10.2 Liveness
For some set of objects S, a hypothetical WeakRef-oblivious execution with respect to S is an execution whereby the abstract operation
At any point during evaluation, a set of objects S is considered live if either of the following conditions is met:
- Any element in S is included in any
agent 's [[KeptAlive]]List . - There exists a valid future hypothetical WeakRef-oblivious execution with respect to S that observes the Object value of any object in S.
Presence of an object in a field, an internal slot, or a property does not imply that the object is live. For example if the object in question is never passed back to the program, then it cannot be observed.
This is the case for keys in a WeakMap, members of a WeakSet, as well as the [[WeakRefTarget]] and [[UnregisterToken]] fields of a
The above definition implies that, if a key in a WeakMap is not live, then its corresponding value is not necessarily live either.

At any time, if a set of objects S is not

- For each

Together with the definition of liveness, this clause prescribes legal optimizations that an implementation may apply regarding WeakRefs.
It is possible to access an object without observing its identity. Optimizations such as dead variable elimination and scalar replacement on properties of non-escaping objects whose identity is not observed are allowed. These optimizations are thus allowed to observably empty WeakRefs that point to such objects.
On the other hand, if an object's identity is observable, and that object is in the [[WeakRefTarget]] internal slot of a

|---|---|
| [[GetPrototypeOf]] | getPrototypeOf |
| [[SetPrototypeOf]] | setPrototypeOf |
| [[IsExtensible]] | isExtensible |
| [[PreventExtensions]] | preventExtensions |

When a handler method is called to provide the implementation of a proxy object internal method, the handler method is passed the proxy's target object as a parameter. A proxy's handler object does not necessarily have a method corresponding to every essential internal method. Invoking an internal method on the proxy results in the invocation of the corresponding internal method on the proxy's target object if the handler object does not have a method corresponding to the internal trap.
The [[ProxyHandler]] and [[ProxyTarget]] internal slots of a proxy object are always initialized when the object is created and typically may not be modified. Some proxy objects are created in a manner that permits them to be subsequently revoked. When a proxy is revoked, its [[ProxyHandler]] and [[ProxyTarget]] internal slots are set to

11 ECMAScript Language: Source Code
11.1 Source Text
Syntax
ECMAScript code is expressed using Unicode. ECMAScript source text is a sequence of code points. All Unicode code point values from U+0000 to U+10FFFF, including surrogate code points, may occur in source text where permitted by the ECMAScript grammars. The actual encodings used to store and interchange ECMAScript source text is not relevant to this specification. Regardless of the external source text encoding, a conforming ECMAScript implementation processes the source text as if it was an equivalent sequence of
The components of a combining character sequence are treated as individual Unicode code points even though a user might think of the whole sequence as a single character.
In string literals, regular expression literals, template literals and identifiers, any Unicode code point may also be expressed using Unicode escape sequences that explicitly express a code point's numeric value. Within a comment, such an escape sequence is effectively ignored as part of the comment.
ECMAScript differs from the Java programming language in the behaviour of Unicode escape sequences. In a Java program, if the Unicode escape sequence \u000A, for example, occurs within a single-line comment, it is interpreted as a line terminator (Unicode code point U+000A is LINE FEED (LF)) and therefore the next code point is not part of the comment. Similarly, if the Unicode escape sequence \u000A occurs within a string literal in a Java program, it is likewise interpreted as a line terminator, which is not allowed within a string literal—one must write \n instead of \u000A to cause a LINE FEED (LF) to be part of the String value of a string literal. In an ECMAScript program, a Unicode escape sequence occurring within a comment is never interpreted and therefore cannot contribute to termination of the comment. Similarly, a Unicode escape sequence occurring within a string literal in an ECMAScript program always contributes to the literal and is never interpreted as a line terminator or as a code point that might terminate the string literal.
11.1.1 Static Semantics: UTF16EncodeCodePoint ( cp )
The abstract operation UTF16EncodeCodePoint takes argument cp (a Unicode code point). It performs the following steps when called:
Assert : 0 ≤ cp ≤ 0x10FFFF.- If cp ≤ 0xFFFF, return the String value consisting of the code unit whose value is cp.
- Let cu1 be the code unit whose value is
floor ((cp - 0x10000) / 0x400) + 0xD800. - Let cu2 be the code unit whose value is ((cp - 0x10000)
modulo 0x400) + 0xDC00. - Return the
string-concatenation of cu1 and cu2.
11.1.2 Static Semantics: CodePointsToString ( text )
The abstract operation CodePointsToString takes argument text (a sequence of Unicode code points). It converts text into a String value, as described in

CodePointAt (string, position). - Append cp.[[CodePoint]] to codePoints.
- Set position to position + cp.[[CodeUnitCount]].
- Let cp be !
- Return codePoints.
11.1.6 Static Semantics: ParseText ( sourceText, goalSymbol )
The abstract operation ParseText takes arguments sourceText (a sequence of Unicode code points) and goalSymbol (a nonterminal in one of the ECMAScript grammars). It performs the following steps when called:
- Attempt to parse sourceText using goalSymbol as the
goal symbol , and analyse the parse result for anyearly error conditions. Parsing andearly error detection may be interleaved in animplementation-defined manner. - If the parse succeeded and no early errors were found, return the
Parse Node (an instance of goalSymbol) at the root of the parse tree resulting from the parse. - Otherwise, return a
List of one or moreSyntaxError objects representing the parsing errors and/or early errors. If more than one parsing error orearly error is present, the number and ordering of error objects in the list isimplementation-defined , but at least one must be present.

11.2 Types of Source Code
There are four types of ECMAScript code:
- Global code is source text that is treated as an ECMAScript
Script . The global code of a particularScript does not include any source text that is parsed as part of aFunctionDeclaration ,FunctionExpression ,GeneratorDeclaration ,GeneratorExpression ,AsyncFunctionDeclaration ,AsyncFunctionExpression ,AsyncGeneratorDeclaration ,AsyncGeneratorExpression ,MethodDefinition ,ArrowFunction ,AsyncArrowFunction ,ClassDeclaration , orClassExpression . - Eval code is the source text supplied to the built-in
evalfunction. More precisely, if the parameter to the built-inevalfunction is a String, it is treated as an ECMAScriptScript . The eval code for a particular invocation ofevalis the global code portion of thatScript . Function code is source text that is parsed to supply the value of the [[ECMAScriptCode]] and [[FormalParameters]] internal slots (see
10.2 ) of an ECMAScriptfunction object . The function code of a particular ECMAScript function does not include any source text that is parsed as the function code of a nestedFunctionDeclaration ,FunctionExpression ,GeneratorDeclaration ,GeneratorExpression ,AsyncFunctionDeclaration ,AsyncFunctionExpression ,AsyncGeneratorDeclaration ,AsyncGeneratorExpression ,MethodDefinition ,ArrowFunction ,AsyncArrowFunction ,ClassDeclaration , orClassExpression .In addition, if the source text referred to above is parsed as:
- the
FormalParameters andFunctionBody of aFunctionDeclaration orFunctionExpression , - the
FormalParameters andGeneratorBody of aGeneratorDeclaration orGeneratorExpression , - the
FormalParameters andAsyncFunctionBody of anAsyncFunctionDeclaration orAsyncFunctionExpression , or - the
FormalParameters andAsyncGeneratorBody of anAsyncGeneratorDeclaration orAsyncGeneratorExpression ,
then the source text matching the
BindingIdentifier (if any) of that declaration or expression is also included in the function code of the corresponding function.- the
- Module code is source text that is code that is provided as a
ModuleBody . It is the code that is directly evaluated when a module is initialized. The module code of a particular module does not include any source text that is parsed as part of a nestedFunctionDeclaration ,FunctionExpression ,GeneratorDeclaration ,GeneratorExpression ,AsyncFunctionDeclaration ,AsyncFunctionExpression ,AsyncGeneratorDeclaration ,AsyncGeneratorExpression ,MethodDefinition ,ArrowFunction ,AsyncArrowFunction ,ClassDeclaration , orClassExpression .

An ECMAScript syntactic unit may be processed using either unrestricted or strict mode syntax and semantics (
- Global code is strict mode code if it begins with a
Directive Prologue that contains aUse Strict Directive . - Module code is always strict mode code.
- All parts of a
ClassDeclaration or aClassExpression are strict mode code. - Eval code is strict mode code if it begins with a
Directive Prologue that contains aUse Strict Directive or if the call toevalis adirect eval that is contained in strict mode code. - Function code is strict mode code if the associated
FunctionDeclaration ,FunctionExpression ,GeneratorDeclaration ,GeneratorExpression ,AsyncFunctionDeclaration ,AsyncFunctionExpression ,AsyncGeneratorDeclaration ,AsyncGeneratorExpression ,MethodDefinition ,ArrowFunction , orAsyncArrowFunction is contained in strict mode code or if the code that produces the value of the function's [[ECMAScriptCode]] internal slot begins with aDirective Prologue that contains aUse Strict Directive . - Function code that is supplied as the arguments to the built-in Function, Generator, AsyncFunction, and AsyncGenerator constructors is strict mode code if the last argument is a String that when processed is a
FunctionBody that begins with aDirective Prologue that contains aUse Strict Directive .
ECMAScript code that is not strict mode code is called non-strict code.

12 ECMAScript Language: Lexical Grammar
The source text of an ECMAScript
There are several situations where the identification of lexical input elements is sensitive to the syntactic grammar context that is consuming the input elements. This requires multiple goal symbols for the lexical grammar. The
The use of multiple lexical goals ensures that there are no lexical ambiguities that would affect automatic semicolon insertion. For example, there are no syntactic grammar contexts where both a leading division or division-assignment, and a leading

a = b / hi / g.exec(c).map(d);Syntax
12.1 Unicode Format-Control Characters
The Unicode format-control characters (i.e., the characters in category “Cf” in the Unicode Character Database such as LEFT-TO-RIGHT MARK or RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK) are control codes used to control the formatting of a range of text in the absence of higher-level protocols for this (such as mark-up languages).
It is useful to allow format-control characters in source text to facilitate editing and display. All format control characters may be used within comments, and within string literals, template literals, and regular expression literals.
U+200C (ZERO WIDTH NON-JOINER) and U+200D (ZERO WIDTH JOINER) are format-control characters that are used to make necessary distinctions when forming words or phrases in certain languages. In ECMAScript source text these code points may also be used in an
U+FEFF (ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE) is a format-control character used primarily at the start of a text to mark it as Unicode and to allow detection of the text's encoding and byte order. <ZWNBSP> characters intended for this purpose can sometimes also appear after the start of a text, for example as a result of concatenating files. In ECMAScript source text <ZWNBSP> code points are treated as white space characters (see
The special treatment of certain format-control characters outside of comments, string literals, and regular expression literals is summarized in

12.2 White Space
White space code points are used to improve source text readability and to separate tokens (indivisible lexical units) from each other, but are otherwise insignificant.

12.3 Line Terminators
Like white space code points, line terminator code points are used to improve source text readability and to separate tokens (indivisible lexical units) from each other. However, unlike white space code points, line terminators have some influence over the behaviour of the syntactic grammar. In general, line terminators may occur between any two tokens, but there are a few places where they are forbidden by the syntactic grammar. Line terminators also affect the process of automatic semicolon insertion (

12.9 Automatic Semicolon Insertion
Most ECMAScript statements and declarations must be terminated with a semicolon. Such semicolons may always appear explicitly in the source text. For convenience, however, such semicolons may be omitted from the source text in certain situations. These situations are described by saying that semicolons are automatically inserted into the source code token stream in those situations.
12.9.1 Rules of Automatic Semicolon Insertion
In the following rules, “token” means the actual recognized lexical token determined using the current lexical
There are three basic rules of semicolon insertion:
When, as the source text is parsed from left to right, a token (called the offending token) is encountered that is not allowed by any production of the grammar, then a semicolon is automatically inserted before the offending token if one or more of the following conditions is true:
- The offending token is separated from the previous token by at least one
LineTerminator . - The offending token is
}. - The previous token is
)and the inserted semicolon would then be parsed as the terminating semicolon of a do-while statement (14.7.2 ).
- The offending token is separated from the previous token by at least one
- When, as the source text is parsed from left to right, the end of the input stream of tokens is encountered and the parser is unable to parse the input token stream as a single instance of the goal nonterminal, then a semicolon is automatically inserted at the end of the input stream.
- When, as the source text is parsed from left to right, a token is encountered that is allowed by some production of the grammar, but the production is a restricted production and the token would be the first token for a terminal or nonterminal immediately following the annotation “[no
LineTerminator here]” within the restricted production (and therefore such a token is called a restricted token), and the restricted token is separated from the previous token by at least oneLineTerminator , then a semicolon is automatically inserted before the restricted token.
However, there is an additional overriding condition on the preceding rules: a semicolon is never inserted automatically if the semicolon would then be parsed as an empty statement or if that semicolon would become one of the two semicolons in the header of a for statement (see
The following are the only restricted productions in the grammar:
The practical effect of these restricted productions is as follows:
- When a
++or--token is encountered where the parser would treat it as a postfix operator, and at least oneLineTerminator occurred between the preceding token and the++or--token, then a semicolon is automatically inserted before the++or--token. - When a
continue,break,return,throw, oryieldtoken is encountered and aLineTerminator is encountered before the next token, a semicolon is automatically inserted after thecontinue,break,return,throw, oryieldtoken.
The resulting practical advice to ECMAScript programmers is:
- A postfix
++or--operator should appear on the same line as its operand. - An
Expression in areturnorthrowstatement or anAssignmentExpression in ayieldexpression should start on the same line as thereturn,throw, oryieldtoken. - A
LabelIdentifier in abreakorcontinuestatement should be on the same line as thebreakorcontinuetoken.
12.9.2 Examples of Automatic Semicolon Insertion
This section is non-normative.The source
{ 1 2 } 3is not a valid sentence in the ECMAScript grammar, even with the automatic semicolon insertion rules. In contrast, the source
{ 1
2 } 3is also not a valid ECMAScript sentence, but is transformed by automatic semicolon insertion into the following:
{ 1
;2 ;} 3;which is a valid ECMAScript sentence.
The source
for (a; b
)is not a valid ECMAScript sentence and is not altered by automatic semicolon insertion because the semicolon is needed for the header of a for statement. Automatic semicolon insertion never inserts one of the two semicolons in the header of a for statement.
The source
return
a + bis transformed by automatic semicolon insertion into the following:
return;
a + b;The expression a + b is not treated as a value to be returned by the return statement, because areturn.
The source
a = b
++cis transformed by automatic semicolon insertion into the following:
a = b;
++c;The token ++ is not treated as a postfix operator applying to the variable b, because ab and ++.
The source
if (a > b)
else c = dis not a valid ECMAScript sentence and is not altered by automatic semicolon insertion before the else token, even though no production of the grammar applies at that point, because an automatically inserted semicolon would then be parsed as an empty statement.
The source
a = b + c
(d + e).print()is not transformed by automatic semicolon insertion, because the parenthesized expression that begins the second line can be interpreted as an argument list for a function call:
a = b + c(d + e).print()In the circumstance that an assignment statement must begin with a left parenthesis, it is a good idea for the programmer to provide an explicit semicolon at the end of the preceding statement rather than to rely on automatic semicolon insertion.
12.9.3 Interesting Cases of Automatic Semicolon Insertion
This section is non-normative.ECMAScript programs can be written in a style with very few semicolons by relying on automatic semicolon insertion. As described above, semicolons are not inserted at every newline, and automatic semicolon insertion can depend on multiple tokens across line terminators.
As new syntactic features are added to ECMAScript, additional grammar productions could be added that cause lines relying on automatic semicolon insertion preceding them to change grammar productions when parsed.
For the purposes of this section, a case of automatic semicolon insertion is considered interesting if it is a place where a semicolon may or may not be inserted, depending on the source text which precedes it. The rest of this section describes a number of interesting cases of automatic semicolon insertion in this version of ECMAScript.
12.9.3.1 Interesting Cases of Automatic Semicolon Insertion in Statement Lists
In a
- An opening parenthesis (
(). Without a semicolon, the two lines together are treated as aCallExpression . - An opening square bracket (
[). Without a semicolon, the two lines together are treated as property access, rather than anArrayLiteral orArrayAssignmentPattern . - A template literal (
`). Without a semicolon, the two lines together are interpreted as a tagged Template (13.3.11 ), with the previous expression as theMemberExpression . - Unary
+or-. Without a semicolon, the two lines together are interpreted as a usage of the corresponding binary operator. - A RegExp literal. Without a semicolon, the two lines together may be parsed instead as the
/MultiplicativeOperator , for example if the RegExp has flags.

RelationalExpression . - Let rval be ?

IsStrictlyEqual (rval, lval). - If r is

Given the above definition of equality:
- String comparison can be forced by:
`${a}` == `${b}`. - Numeric comparison can be forced by:
+a == +b. - Boolean comparison can be forced by:
!a == !b.
The equality operators maintain the following invariants:
A != Bis equivalent to!(A == B).A == Bis equivalent toB == A, except in the order of evaluation ofAandB.
The equality operator is not always transitive. For example, there might be two distinct String objects, each representing the same String value; each String object would be considered equal to the String value by the == operator, but the two String objects would not be equal to each other. For example:
new String("a") == "a"and"a" == new String("a")are bothtrue .new String("a") == new String("a")isfalse .
Comparison of Strings uses a simple equality test on sequences of code unit values. There is no attempt to use the more complex, semantically oriented definitions of character or string equality and collating order defined in the Unicode specification. Therefore Strings values that are canonically equal according to the Unicode standard could test as unequal. In effect this algorithm assumes that both Strings are already in normalized form.

14.7.5.9 EnumerateObjectProperties ( O )
The abstract operation EnumerateObjectProperties takes argument O. It performs the following steps when called:
Assert :Type (O) is Object.- Return an Iterator object (
27.1.1.2 ) whosenextmethod iterates over all the String-valued keys of enumerable properties of O. The iterator object is never directly accessible to ECMAScript code. The mechanics and order of enumerating the properties is not specified but must conform to the rules specified below.
The iterator's throw and return methods arenext method processes object properties to determine whether the property key should be returned as an iterator value. Returned property keys do not include keys that are Symbols. Properties of the target object may be deleted during enumeration. A property that is deleted before it is processed by the iterator's next method is ignored. If new properties are added to the target object during enumeration, the newly added properties are not guaranteed to be processed in the active enumeration. Anext method at most once in any enumeration.
Enumerating the properties of the target object includes enumerating properties of its prototype, and the prototype of the prototype, and so on, recursively; but a property of a prototype is not processed if it has the same name as a property that has already been processed by the iterator's next method. The values of [[Enumerable]] attributes are not considered when determining if a property of a prototype object has already been processed. The enumerable property names of prototype objects must be obtained by invoking EnumerateObjectProperties passing the prototype object as the argument. EnumerateObjectProperties must obtain the own property keys of the target object by calling its [[OwnPropertyKeys]] internal method. Property attributes of the target object must be obtained by calling its [[GetOwnProperty]] internal method.
In addition, if neither O nor any object in its prototype chain is a
- the value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of O or an object in its prototype chain changes,
- a property is removed from O or an object in its prototype chain,
- a property is added to an object in O's prototype chain, or
- the value of the [[Enumerable]] attribute of a property of O or an object in its prototype chain changes.
ECMAScript implementations are not required to implement the algorithm in
The following is an informative definition of an ECMAScript generator function that conforms to these rules:
function* EnumerateObjectProperties(obj) {
const visited = new Set();
for (const key of Reflect.ownKeys(obj)) {
if (typeof key === "symbol") continue;
const desc = Reflect.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(obj, key);
if (desc) {
visited.add(key);
if (desc.enumerable) yield key;
}
}
const proto = Reflect.getPrototypeOf(obj);
if (proto === null) return;
for (const protoKey of EnumerateObjectProperties(proto)) {
if (!visited.has(protoKey)) yield protoKey;
}

A For-In Iterator is an object that represents a specific iteration over some specific object. For-In Iterator objects are never directly accessible to ECMAScript code; they exist solely to illustrate the behaviour of
14.7.5.10.1 CreateForInIterator ( object )
The abstract operation CreateForInIterator takes argument object. It is used to create a For-In Iterator object which iterates over the own and inherited enumerable string properties of object in a specific order. It performs the following steps when called:

With parameters classBinding and className.
For ease of specification, private methods and accessors are included alongside private fields in the [[PrivateElements]] slot of class instances. However, any given object has either all or none of the private methods and accessors defined by a given class. This feature has been designed so that implementations may choose to implement private methods and accessors using a strategy which does not require tracking each method or accessor individually.
For example, an implementation could directly associate instance private methods with their correspondingthis value. Looking up an instance private method on an object then consists of checking that the class
This differs from private fields: because field initializers can throw during class instantiation, an individual object may have some proper subset of the private fields of a given class, and so private fields must in general be tracked individually.

execution context stack . Theexecution context now on the top of the stack becomes therunning execution context . Assert : leafContext has no further use. It will never be activated as therunning execution context .
A tail position call must either release any transient internal resources associated with the currently executing function
For example, a tail position call should only grow an implementation's activation record stack by the amount that the size of the target function's activation record exceeds the size of the calling function's activation record. If the target function's activation record is smaller, then the total size of the stack should decrease.

16.2.1.4 Abstract Module Records
A Module Record encapsulates structural information about the imports and exports of a single module. This information is used to link the imports and exports of sets of connected modules. A Module Record includes four fields that are only used when evaluating a module.
For specification purposes Module Record values are values of the
Module Record defines the fields listed in
| Field Name | Value Type | Meaning |

| Method | Purpose |
|---|---|
| GetExportedNames([exportStarSet]) | Return a list of all names that are either directly or indirectly exported from this module. |
| ResolveExport(exportName [, resolveSet]) | Return the binding of a name exported by this module. Bindings are represented by a ResolvedBinding Record, of the form { [[Module]]: Each time this operation is called with a specific exportName, resolveSet pair as arguments it must return the same result if it completes normally. |

16.2.1.5.3 Example Cyclic Module Record Graphs
This non-normative section gives a series of examples of the linking and evaluation of a few common module graphs, with a specific focus on how errors can occur.
First consider the following simple module graph:
Let's first assume that there are no error conditions. When a
Consider then cases involving linking errors. If
Finally, consider a case involving evaluation errors. If
The difference here between linking and evaluation errors is due to how evaluation must be only performed once, as it can cause side effects; it is thus important to remember whether evaluation has already been performed, even if unsuccessfully. (In the error case, it makes sense to also remember the exception because otherwise subsequent Evaluate() calls would have to synthesize a new one.) Linking, on the other hand, is side-effect-free, and thus even if it fails, it can be retried at a later time with no issues.
Now consider a different type of error condition:
In this scenario, module A declares a dependency on some other module, but no
Lastly, consider a module graph with a cycle:
Here we assume that the entry point is module A, so that the
An analogous story occurs for the evaluation phase of a cyclic module graph, in the success case.
Now consider a case where A has an linking error; for example, it tries to import a binding from C that does not exist. In that case, the above steps still occur, including the early return from the second call to
Finally, consider a case where A has an evaluation error; for example, its source code throws an exception. In that case, the evaluation-time analog of the above steps still occurs, including the early return from the second call to

17 Error Handling and Language Extensions
An implementation must report most errors at the time the relevant ECMAScript language construct is evaluated. An early error is an error that can be detected and reported prior to the evaluation of any construct in theeval is called and prevent evaluation of the eval code. All errors that are not early errors are runtime errors.
An implementation must report as an
An implementation shall not treat other kinds of errors as early errors even if the compiler can prove that a construct cannot execute without error under any circumstances. An implementation may issue an early warning in such a case, but it should not report the error until the relevant construct is actually executed.
An implementation shall report all errors as specified, except for the following:
- Except as restricted in
17.1 , ahost or implementation may extendScript syntax,Module syntax, and regular expression pattern or flag syntax. To permit this, all operations (such as callingeval, using a regular expression literal, or using the Function or RegExpconstructor ) that are allowed to throwSyntaxError are permitted to exhibithost-defined behaviour instead of throwingSyntaxError when they encounter ahost-defined extension to the script syntax or regular expression pattern or flag syntax. - Except as restricted in
17.1 , ahost or implementation may provide additional types, values, objects, properties, and functions beyond those described in this specification. This may cause constructs (such as looking up a variable in the global scope) to havehost-defined behaviour instead of throwing an error (such asReferenceError ).
17.1 Forbidden Extensions
An implementation must not extend this specification in the following ways:
- ECMAScript function objects defined using syntactic constructors in
strict mode code must not be created with own properties named"caller" or"arguments" . Such own properties also must not be created for function objects defined using anArrowFunction ,MethodDefinition ,GeneratorDeclaration ,GeneratorExpression ,AsyncGeneratorDeclaration ,AsyncGeneratorExpression ,ClassDeclaration ,ClassExpression ,AsyncFunctionDeclaration ,AsyncFunctionExpression , orAsyncArrowFunction regardless of whether the definition is contained instrict mode code . Built-in functions, strict functions created using the Functionconstructor , generator functions created using the Generatorconstructor , async functions created using the AsyncFunctionconstructor , and functions created using thebindmethod also must not be created with such own properties. - If an implementation extends any
function object with an own property named"caller" the value of that property, as observed using [[Get]] or [[GetOwnProperty]], must not be astrict function object. If it is anaccessor property , the function that is the value of the property's [[Get]] attribute must never return astrict function when called. - Neither mapped nor unmapped arguments objects may be created with an own property named
"caller" . - The behaviour of built-in methods which are specified in ECMA-402, such as those named
toLocaleString, must not be extended except as specified in ECMA-402. - The RegExp pattern grammars in
22.2.1 andB.1.4 must not be extended to recognize any of the source characters A-Z or a-z asIdentityEscape when the [U] grammar parameter is present.[+U] - The Syntactic Grammar must not be extended in any manner that allows the token
:to immediately follow source text that matches theBindingIdentifier nonterminal symbol. - When processing
strict mode code , the syntax ofNumericLiteral must not be extended to includeLegacyOctalIntegerLiteral DecimalIntegerLiteral must not be extended to includeNonOctalDecimalIntegerLiteral B.1.1 . TemplateCharacter must not be extended to includeLegacyOctalEscapeSequence NonOctalDecimalEscapeSequence B.1.2 .- When processing
strict mode code , the extensions defined inB.3.1 ,B.3.2 ,B.3.3 , andB.3.5 must not be supported. - When parsing for the
Module goal symbol , the lexical grammar extensions defined inB.1.3 must not be supported. ImportCall must not be extended.

19.2.6 URI Handling Functions
Uniform Resource Identifiers, or URIs, are Strings that identify resources (e.g. web pages or files) and transport protocols by which to access them (e.g. HTTP or FTP) on the Internet. The ECMAScript language itself does not provide any support for using URIs except for functions that encode and decode URIs as described in
Many implementations of ECMAScript provide additional functions and methods that manipulate web pages; these functions are beyond the scope of this standard.
19.2.6.1 URI Syntax and Semantics
A URI is composed of a sequence of components separated by component separators. The general form is:
: First / Second ; Third ? Fourthwhere the italicized names represent components and “:”, “/”, “;” and “?” are reserved for use as separators. The encodeURI and decodeURI functions are intended to work with complete URIs; they assume that any reserved code units in the URI are intended to have special meaning and so are not encoded. The encodeURIComponent and decodeURIComponent functions are intended to work with the individual component parts of a URI; they assume that any reserved code units represent text and so must be encoded so that they are not interpreted as reserved code units when the component is part of a complete URI.
The following lexical grammar specifies the form of encoded URIs.
Syntax
The above syntax is based upon RFC 2396 and does not reflect changes introduced by the more recent RFC 3986.
Runtime Semantics
When a code unit to be included in a URI is not listed above or is not intended to have the special meaning sometimes given to the reserved code units, that code unit must be encoded. The code unit is transformed into its UTF-8 encoding, with
19.2.6.1.1 Encode ( string, unescapedSet )
The abstract operation Encode takes arguments string (a String) and unescapedSet (a String). It performs URI encoding and escaping. It performs the following steps when called:
- Let strLen be the number of code units in string.
- Let R be the empty String.
- Let k be 0.
- Repeat,
- If k = strLen, return R.
- Let C be the code unit at index k within string.
- If C is in unescapedSet, then
- Set k to k + 1.
- Set R to the
string-concatenation of R and C.
- Else,
- Let cp be !
CodePointAt (string, k). - If cp.[[IsUnpairedSurrogate]] is
true , throw aURIError exception. - Set k to k + cp.[[CodeUnitCount]].
- Let Octets be the
List of octets resulting by applying the UTF-8 transformation to cp.[[CodePoint]]. - For each element octet of Octets, do
- Set R to the
string-concatenation of:- R

19.2.6.1.2 Decode ( string, reservedSet )
The abstract operation Decode takes arguments string (a String) and reservedSet (a String). It performs URI unescaping and decoding. It performs the following steps when called:
- Let strLen be the length of string.
- Let R be the empty String.
- Let k be 0.
- Repeat,
- If k = strLen, return R.
- Let C be the code unit at index k within string.
- If C is not the code unit 0x0025 (PERCENT SIGN), then
- Let S be the String value containing only the code unit C.
- Else,

URIError exception. - If k + (3 × (n - 1)) ≥ strLen, throw a
URIError exception. - Let Octets be a
List whose sole element is B. - Let j be 1.

- If the code unit at index k within string is not the code unit 0x0025 (PERCENT SIGN), throw a
URIError exception. - If the code units at index (k + 1) and (k + 2) within string do not represent hexadecimal digits, throw a
URIError exception. - Let B be the 8-bit value represented by the two hexadecimal digits at index (k + 1) and (k + 2).
- Set k to k + 2.
- Append B to Octets.
- Set j to j + 1.
Assert : The length of Octets is n.- If Octets does not contain a valid UTF-8 encoding of a Unicode code point, throw a
URIError exception. - Let V be the code point obtained by applying the UTF-8 transformation to Octets, that is, from a
List of octets into a 21-bit value. - Let S be
UTF16EncodeCodePoint (V).

- Set R to the
string-concatenation of R and S. - Set k to k + 1.
This syntax of Uniform Resource Identifiers is based upon RFC 2396 and does not reflect the more recent RFC 3986 which replaces RFC 2396. A formal description and implementation of UTF-8 is given in RFC 3629.
In UTF-8, characters are encoded using sequences of 1 to 6 octets. The only octet of a sequence of one has the higher-order bit set to 0, the remaining 7 bits being used to encode the character value. In a sequence of n octets, n > 1, the initial octet has the n higher-order bits set to 1, followed by a bit set to 0. The remaining bits of that octet contain bits from the value of the character to be encoded. The following octets all have the higher-order bit set to 1 and the following bit set to 0, leaving 6 bits in each to contain bits from the character to be encoded. The possible UTF-8 encodings of ECMAScript characters are specified in
| Code Unit Value | Representation | 1st Octet | 2nd Octet | 3rd Octet | 4th Octet |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
0x0000 - 0x007F | 00000000 0zzzzzzz | 0zzzzzzz | |||
0x0080 - 0x07FF | 00000yyy yyzzzzzz | 110yyyyy | 10zzzzzz | ||

RFC 3629 prohibits the decoding of invalid UTF-8 octet sequences. For example, the invalid sequence C0 80 must not decode into the code unit 0x0000. Implementations of the Decode algorithm are required to throw a
19.2.6.2 decodeURI ( encodedURI )
The decodeURI function computes a new version of a URI in which each escape sequence and UTF-8 encoding of the sort that might be introduced by the encodeURI function is replaced with the UTF-16 encoding of the code points that it represents. Escape sequences that could not have been introduced by encodeURI are not replaced.

20.1.4 Properties of Object Instances
Object instances have no special properties beyond those inherited from the
20.2 Function Objects
20.2.1 The Function Constructor
The Function
- is %Function%.
- is the initial value of the
"Function" property of theglobal object . - creates and initializes a new
function object when called as a function rather than as aconstructor . Thus the function callFunction(…)is equivalent to the object creation expressionnew Function(…)with the same arguments. - may be used as the value of an
extendsclause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified Function behaviour must include asupercall to the Functionconstructor to create and initialize a subclass instance with the internal slots necessary for built-in function behaviour. All ECMAScript syntactic forms for defining function objects create instances of Function. There is no syntactic means to create instances of Function subclasses except for the built-in GeneratorFunction, AsyncFunction, and AsyncGeneratorFunction subclasses.
20.2.1.1 Function ( p1, p2, … , pn, body )
The last argument specifies the body (executable code) of a function; any preceding arguments specify formal parameters.
When the Function function is called with some arguments p1, p2, … , pn, body (where n might be 0, that is, there are no “ p ” arguments, and where body might also not be provided), the following steps are taken:
- Let C be the
active function object . - Let args be the argumentsList that was passed to this function by [[Call]] or [[Construct]].

21.4 Date Objects
21.4.1 Overview of Date Objects and Definitions of Abstract Operations
The following
21.4.1.1 Time Values and Time Range
Time measurement in ECMAScript is analogous to time measurement in POSIX, in particular sharing definition in terms of the proleptic Gregorian calendar, an epoch of midnight at the beginning of 1 January 1970 UTC, and an accounting of every day as comprising exactly 86,400 seconds (each of which is 1000 milliseconds long).
An ECMAScript time value is a Number, either a finite
Time values do not account for UTC leap seconds—there are no time values representing instants within positive leap seconds, and there are time values representing instants removed from the UTC timeline by negative leap seconds. However, the definition of time values nonetheless yields piecewise alignment with UTC, with discontinuities only at leap second boundaries and zero difference outside of leap seconds.
A Number can exactly represent all integers from -9,007,199,254,740,992 to 9,007,199,254,740,992 (
The exact moment of midnight at the beginning of 1 January 1970 UTC is represented by the time value
The 400 year cycle of the proleptic Gregorian calendar contains 97 leap years. This yields an average of 365.2425 days per year, which is 31,556,952,000 milliseconds. Therefore, the maximum range a Number could represent exactly with millisecond precision is approximately -285,426 to 285,426 years relative to 1970. The smaller range supported by a time value as specified in this section is approximately -273,790 to 273,790 years relative to 1970.
21.4.1.2 Day Number and Time within Day
A given

The remainder is called the time within the day:
21.4.1.3 Year Number
ECMAScript uses a proleptic Gregorian calendar to map a day number to a year number and to determine the month and date within that year. In this calendar, leap years are precisely those which are (divisible by 4) and ((not divisible by 100) or (divisible by 400)). The number of days in year number y is therefore defined by
All non-leap years have 365 days with the usual number of days per month and leap years have an extra day in February. The day number of the first day of year y is given by:

- If year is not finite or month is not finite or date is not finite, return
NaN . - Let y be
𝔽 (!ToIntegerOrInfinity (year)). - Let m be
𝔽 (!ToIntegerOrInfinity (month)). - Let dt be
𝔽 (!ToIntegerOrInfinity (date)). - Let ym be y +

NaN . - If
abs (ℝ (time)) > 8.64 × 1015, returnNaN . - Return
𝔽 (!ToIntegerOrInfinity (time)).
21.4.1.15 Date Time String Format
ECMAScript defines a string interchange format for date-times based upon a simplification of the ISO 8601 calendar date extended format. The format is as follows: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ
Where the elements are as follows:
YYYY | is the year in the proleptic Gregorian calendar as four decimal digits from 0000 to 9999, or as an |
- | |
MM | is the month of the year as two decimal digits from 01 (January) to 12 (December). |
DD | is the day of the month as two decimal digits from 01 to 31. |
T | |
HH | is the number of complete hours that have passed since midnight as two decimal digits from 00 to 24. |
: | |
mm | is the number of complete minutes since the start of the hour as two decimal digits from 00 to 59. |
ss | is the number of complete seconds since the start of the minute as two decimal digits from 00 to 59. |
. | |
sss | is the number of complete milliseconds since the start of the second as three decimal digits. |
Z | is the UTC offset representation specified asHH:mm (indicating local time ahead of or behind UTC, respectively) |
This format includes date-only forms:
YYYY
YYYY-MM
YYYY-MM-DD
It also includes “date-time” forms that consist of one of the above date-only forms immediately followed by one of the following time forms with an optional UTC offset representation appended:
THH:mm
THH:mm:ss
THH:mm:ss.sss
A string containing out-of-bounds or nonconforming elements is not a valid instance of this format.
As every day both starts and ends with midnight, the two notations 00:00 and 24:00 are available to distinguish the two midnights that can be associated with one date. This means that the following two notations refer to exactly the same point in time: 1995-02-04T24:00 and 1995-02-05T00:00. This interpretation of the latter form as "end of a calendar day" is consistent with ISO 8601, even though that specification reserves it for describing time intervals and does not permit it within representations of single points in time.
There exists no international standard that specifies abbreviations for civil time zones like CET, EST, etc. and sometimes the same abbreviation is even used for two very different time zones. For this reason, both ISO 8601 and this format specify numeric representations of time zone offsets.

22.2.2 Pattern Semantics
This section is amended in
A regular expression pattern is converted into an
Au. A BMP pattern matches against a String interpreted as consisting of a sequence of 16-bit values that are Unicode code points in the range of the Basic Multilingual Plane. A Unicode pattern matches against a String interpreted as consisting of Unicode code points encoded using UTF-16. In the context of describing the behaviour of a BMP pattern “character” means a single 16-bit Unicode BMP code point. In the context of describing the behaviour of a Unicode pattern “character” means a UTF-16 encoded code point (
The syntax and semantics of
For example, consider a pattern expressed in source text as the single non-BMP character U+1D11E (MUSICAL SYMBOL G CLEF). Interpreted as a Unicode pattern, it would be a single element (character)
Patterns are passed to the RegExp
An implementation may not actually perform such translations to or from UTF-16, but the semantics of this specification requires that the result of pattern matching be as if such translations were performed.
22.2.2.1 Notation
The descriptions below use the following aliases:
- Input is a
List whose elements are the characters of the String being matched by the regular expression pattern. Each character is either a code unit or a code point, depending upon the kind of pattern involved. The notation Input[n] means the nth character of Input, where n can range between 0 (inclusive) and InputLength (exclusive). - InputLength is the number of characters in Input.
- NcapturingParens is the total number of left-capturing parentheses (i.e. the total number of
Atom :: ( GroupSpecifier Disjunction ) (pattern character that is matched by the(terminal of theAtom :: ( GroupSpecifier Disjunction ) - DotAll is
true if the RegExp object's [[OriginalFlags]] internal slot contains"s" and otherwise isfalse . - IgnoreCase is
true if the RegExp object's [[OriginalFlags]] internal slot contains"i" and otherwise isfalse . - Multiline is
true if the RegExp object's [[OriginalFlags]] internal slot contains"m" and otherwise isfalse . - Unicode is
true if the RegExp object's [[OriginalFlags]] internal slot contains"u" and otherwise isfalse . - WordCharacters is the mathematical set that is the union of all sixty-three characters in
"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789_" (letters, numbers, and U+005F (LOW LINE) in the Unicode Basic Latin block) and all characters c for which c is not in that set butCanonicalize (c) is. WordCharacters cannot contain more than sixty-three characters unless Unicode and IgnoreCase are bothtrue .
Furthermore, the descriptions below use the following internal data structures:
- A CharSet is a mathematical set of characters. When the Unicode flag is
true , “all characters” means the CharSet containing all code point values; otherwise “all characters” means the CharSet containing all code unit values. - A State is an ordered pair (endIndex, captures) where endIndex is an
integer and captures is aList of NcapturingParens values. States are used to represent partial match states in the regular expression matching algorithms. The endIndex is one plus the index of the last input character matched so far by the pattern, while captures holds the results of capturing parentheses. The nth element of captures is either aList of characters that represents the value obtained by the nth set of capturing parentheses orundefined if the nth set of capturing parentheses hasn't been reached yet. Due to backtracking, many States may be in use at any time during the matching process. - A MatchResult is either a State or the special token
failure that indicates that the match failed. - A Continuation is an
Abstract Closure that takes one State argument and returns a MatchResult result. The Continuation attempts to match the remaining portion (specified by the closure's captured values) of the pattern against Input, starting at the intermediate state given by its State argument. If the match succeeds, the Continuation returns the final State that it reached; if the match fails, the Continuation returnsfailure . - A Matcher is an
Abstract Closure that takes two arguments—a State and a Continuation—and returns a MatchResult result. A Matcher attempts to match a middle subpattern (specified by the closure's captured values) of the pattern against Input, starting at the intermediate state given by its State argument. The Continuation argument should be a closure that matches the rest of the pattern. After matching the subpattern of a pattern to obtain a new State, the Matcher then calls Continuation on that new State to test if the rest of the pattern can match as well. If it can, the Matcher returns the State returned by Continuation; if not, the Matcher may try different choices at its choice points, repeatedly calling Continuation until it either succeeds or all possibilities have been exhausted.

Parentheses of the form () serve both to group the components of the\ followed by a non-zero decimal number), referenced in a replace String, or returned as part of an array from the regular expression matching(?:) instead.
The form (?=) specifies a zero-width positive lookahead. In order for it to succeed, the pattern inside(?= form (this unusual behaviour is inherited from Perl). This only matters when the
For example,
/(?=(a+))/.exec("baaabac")matches the empty String immediately after the first b and therefore returns the array:
["", "aaa"]To illustrate the lack of backtracking into the lookahead, consider:
/(?=(a+))a*b\1/.exec("baaabac")This expression returns
["aba", "a"]and not:
["aaaba", "a"]The form (?!) specifies a zero-width negative lookahead. In order for it to succeed, the pattern inside
/(.*?)a(?!(a+)b\2c)\2(.*)/.exec("baaabaac")looks for an a not immediately followed by some positive number n of a's, a b, another n a's (specified by the first \2) and a c. The second \2 is outside the negative lookahead, so it matches against
["baaabaac", "ba", undefined, "abaac"]In case-insignificant matches when Unicode isß (U+00DF) to SS.

22.2.3 The RegExp Constructor
The RegExp
- is %RegExp%.
- is the initial value of the
"RegExp" property of theglobal object . - creates and initializes a new RegExp object when called as a function rather than as a
constructor . Thus the function callRegExp(…)is equivalent to the object creation expressionnew RegExp(…)with the same arguments. - may be used as the value of an
extendsclause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified RegExp behaviour must include asupercall to the RegExpconstructor to create and initialize subclass instances with the necessary internal slots.

ParsePattern (patternText, u). - If parseResult is a non-empty
List ofSyntaxError objects, throw aSyntaxError exception. Assert : parseResult is aParse Node forPattern .- Set obj.[[OriginalSource]] to P.
- Set obj.[[OriginalFlags]] to F.

22.2.3.2.5 EscapeRegExpPattern ( P, F )
The abstract operation EscapeRegExpPattern takes arguments P and F. It performs the following steps when called:
- Let S be a String in the form of a
Pattern ([~U] Pattern if F contains[+U] "u" ) equivalent to P interpreted as UTF-16 encoded Unicode code points (6.1.4 ), in which certain code points are escaped as described below. S may or may not be identical to P; however, theAbstract Closure that would result from evaluating S as aPattern ([~U] Pattern if F contains[+U] "u" ) must behave identically to theAbstract Closure given by the constructed object's [[RegExpMatcher]] internal slot. Multiple calls to this abstract operation using the same values for P and F must produce identical results. - The code points
/or anyLineTerminator occurring in the pattern shall be escaped in S as necessary to ensure that thestring-concatenation of"/" , S,"/" , and F can be parsed (in an appropriate lexical context) as aRegularExpressionLiteral that behaves identically to the constructed regular expression. For example, if P is"/" , then S could be"\/" or"\u002F" , among other possibilities, but not"/" , because///followed by F would be parsed as aSingleLineComment rather than aRegularExpressionLiteral . If P is the empty String, this specification can be met by letting S be"(?:)" . - Return S.

undefined and all applications ofToString , to any specific value passed as an argument toSortCompare , do not produce the same result.
Unless the sort order is specified above to be
- There must be some mathematical permutation π of the non-negative integers less than itemCount, such that for every non-negative
integer j less than itemCount, the elementold[j] is exactly the same asnew[π(j)] . - Then for all non-negative integers j and k, each less than itemCount, if

Here the notation
A function comparefn is a consistent comparison function for a set of values S if all of the requirements below are met for all values a, b, and c (possibly the same value) in the set S: The notation
- Calling comparefn(a, b) always returns the same value v when given a specific pair of values a and b as its two arguments. Furthermore,
Type (v) is Number, and v is notNaN . Note that this implies that exactly one of a <CF b, a =CF b, and a >CF b will be true for a given pair of a and b. - Calling comparefn(a, b) does not modify obj or any object on obj's prototype chain.
- a =CF a (reflexivity)
- If a =CF b, then b =CF a (symmetry)
- If a =CF b and b =CF c, then a =CF c (transitivity of =CF)
- If a <CF b and b <CF c, then a <CF c (transitivity of <CF)
- If a >CF b and b >CF c, then a >CF c (transitivity of >CF)
The above conditions are necessary and sufficient to ensure that comparefn divides the set S into equivalence classes and that these equivalence classes are totally ordered.

23.1.3.29 Array.prototype.toLocaleString ( [ reserved1 [ , reserved2 ] ] )
An ECMAScript implementation that includes the ECMA-402 Internationalization API must implement the Array.prototype.toLocaleString method as specified in the ECMA-402 specification. If an ECMAScript implementation does not include the ECMA-402 API the following specification of the toLocaleString method is used.
The first edition of ECMA-402 did not include a replacement specification for the Array.prototype.toLocaleString method.
The meanings of the optional parameters to this method are defined in the ECMA-402 specification; implementations that do not include ECMA-402 support must not use those parameter positions for anything else.
When the toLocaleString method is called, the following steps are taken:
- Let array be ?
ToObject (this value). - Let len be ?
LengthOfArrayLike (array). - Let separator be the String value for the list-separator String appropriate for the
host environment 's current locale (this is derived in animplementation-defined way). - Let R be the empty String.
- Let k be 0.
- Repeat, while k < len,
- If k > 0, then
- Set R to the
string-concatenation of R and separator.
- Set R to the
- Let nextElement be ?
Get (array, !ToString (𝔽 (k))). - If nextElement is not
undefined ornull , then- Let S be ?
ToString (?Invoke (nextElement,"toLocaleString" )). - Set R to the
string-concatenation of R and S.
- Let S be ?
- Set k to k + 1.
- If k > 0, then
- Return R.
The elements of the array are converted to Strings using their toLocaleString methods, and these Strings are then concatenated, separated by occurrences of a separator String that has been derived in antoString, except that the result of this function is intended to be locale-specific.
The toLocaleString function is intentionally generic; it does not require that its

- Let O be ?
ToObject (this value). - Let len be ?
LengthOfArrayLike (O). - Let argCount be the number of elements in items.
- If argCount > 0, then

forEach does not directly mutate the object on which it is called but the object may be mutated by the calls to callbackfn. Each entry of a map's [[MapData]] is only visited once. New keys added after the call to forEach begins are visited. A key will be revisited if it is deleted after it has been visited and then re-added before the forEach call completes. Keys that are deleted after the call to forEach begins and before being visited are not visited unless the key is added again before the forEach call completes.

24.3 WeakMap Objects
WeakMap objects are collections of key/value pairs where the keys are objects and values may be arbitrary ECMAScript language values. A WeakMap may be queried to see if it contains a key/value pair with a specific key, but no mechanism is provided for enumerating the objects it holds as keys. In certain conditions, objects which are not
An implementation may impose an arbitrarily determined latency between the time a key/value pair of a WeakMap becomes inaccessible and the time when the key/value pair is removed from the WeakMap. If this latency was observable to ECMAScript program, it would be a source of indeterminacy that could impact program execution. For that reason, an ECMAScript implementation must not provide any means to observe a key of a WeakMap that does not require the observer to present the observed key.
WeakMap objects must be implemented using either hash tables or other mechanisms that, on average, provide access times that are sublinear on the number of key/value pairs in the collection. The data structure used in this WeakMap objects specification are only intended to describe the required observable semantics of WeakMap objects. It is not intended to be a viable implementation model.
WeakMap and WeakSets are intended to provide mechanisms for dynamically associating state with an object in a manner that does not “leak” memory resources if, in the absence of the WeakMap or WeakSet, the object otherwise became inaccessible and subject to resource reclamation by the implementation's garbage collection mechanisms. This characteristic can be achieved by using an inverted per-object mapping of weak map instances to keys. Alternatively each weak map may internally store its key to value mappings but this approach requires coordination between the WeakMap or WeakSet implementation and the garbage collector. The following references describe mechanism that may be useful to implementations of WeakMap and WeakSets:

- If n = 4, return
true . - If n = 8, return AR.[[IsLockFree8]].
- Return
false .
Atomics.isLockFree() is an optimization primitive. The intuition is that if the atomic step of an atomic primitive (compareExchange, load, store, add, sub, and, or, xor, or exchange) on a datum of size n bytes will be performed without the callingAtomics.isLockFree(n) will returnAtomics.isLockFree to determine whether to use locks or atomic operations in critical sections. If an atomic primitive is not lock-free then it is often more efficient for an algorithm to provide its own locking.
Atomics.isLockFree(4) always returns
Regardless of the value of Atomics.isLockFree, all atomic operations are guaranteed to be atomic. For example, they will never have a visible operation take place in the middle of the operation (e.g., "tearing").

Conforming implementations of JSON.parse and JSON.stringify must support the exact interchange format described in the ECMA-404 specification without any deletions or extensions to the format.
25.5.1 JSON.parse ( text [ , reviver ] )
The parse function parses a JSON text (a JSON-formatted String) and produces an ECMAScript value.

After parsing, JSON objects are realized as ECMAScript objects. JSON arrays are realized as ECMAScript Array instances. JSON strings, numbers, booleans, and null are realized as ECMAScript Strings, Numbers, Booleans, and
The optional reviver parameter is a function that takes two parameters, key and value. It can filter and transform the results.

An interface is a set of property keys whose associated values match a specific specification. Any object that provides all the properties as described by an interface's specification conforms to that interface. An interface is not represented by a distinct object. There may be many separately implemented objects that conform to any interface. An individual object may conform to multiple interfaces.

27.2 Promise Objects
A Promise is an object that is used as a placeholder for the eventual results of a deferred (and possibly asynchronous) computation.
Any Promise object is in one of three mutually exclusive states: fulfilled, rejected, and pending:
- A promise
pis fulfilled ifp.then(f, r)will immediately enqueue aJob to call the functionf. - A promise
pis rejected ifp.then(f, r)will immediately enqueue aJob to call the functionr. - A promise is pending if it is neither fulfilled nor rejected.
A promise is said to be settled if it is not pending, i.e. if it is either fulfilled or rejected.
A promise is resolved if it is settled or if it has been “locked in” to match the state of another promise. Attempting to resolve or reject a resolved promise has no effect. A promise is unresolved if it is not resolved. An unresolved promise is always in the pending state. A resolved promise may be pending, fulfilled or rejected.

The resolve function that is passed to an executor function accepts a single argument. The executor code may eventually call the resolve function to indicate that it wishes to resolve the associated Promise object. The argument passed to the resolve function represents the eventual value of the deferred action and can be either the actual fulfillment value or another Promise object which will provide the value if it is fulfilled.
The reject function that is passed to an executor function accepts a single argument. The executor code may eventually call the reject function to indicate that the associated Promise is rejected and will never be fulfilled. The argument passed to the reject function is used as the rejection value of the promise. Typically it will be an Error object.

27.3 GeneratorFunction Objects
GeneratorFunction objects are functions that are usually created by evaluating
27.3.1 The GeneratorFunction Constructor
The GeneratorFunction
- is %GeneratorFunction%.
- is a subclass of
Function. - creates and initializes a new GeneratorFunction object when called as a function rather than as a
constructor . Thus the function callGeneratorFunction (…)is equivalent to the object creation expressionnew GeneratorFunction (…)with the same arguments. - may be used as the value of an
extendsclause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified GeneratorFunction behaviour must include asupercall to the GeneratorFunctionconstructor to create and initialize subclass instances with the internal slots necessary for built-in GeneratorFunction behaviour. All ECMAScript syntactic forms for defining generator function objects create direct instances of GeneratorFunction. There is no syntactic means to create instances of GeneratorFunction subclasses.
27.3.1.1 GeneratorFunction ( p1, p2, … , pn, body )
The last argument specifies the body (executable code) of a generator function; any preceding arguments specify formal parameters.
When the GeneratorFunction function is called with some arguments p1, p2, … , pn, body (where n might be 0, that is, there are no “p” arguments, and where body might also not be provided), the following steps are taken:
- Let C be the
active function object . - Let args be the argumentsList that was passed to this function by [[Call]] or [[Construct]].

27.7 AsyncFunction Objects
AsyncFunction objects are functions that are usually created by evaluating
27.7.1 The AsyncFunction Constructor
The AsyncFunction
- is %AsyncFunction%.
- is a subclass of
Function. - creates and initializes a new AsyncFunction object when called as a function rather than as a
constructor . Thus the function callAsyncFunction(…)is equivalent to the object creation expressionnew AsyncFunction(…)with the same arguments. - may be used as the value of an
extendsclause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified AsyncFunction behaviour must include asupercall to the AsyncFunctionconstructor to create and initialize a subclass instance with the internal slots necessary for built-in async function behaviour. All ECMAScript syntactic forms for defining async function objects create direct instances of AsyncFunction. There is no syntactic means to create instances of AsyncFunction subclasses.
27.7.1.1 AsyncFunction ( p1, p2, … , pn, body )
The last argument specifies the body (executable code) of an async function. Any preceding arguments specify formal parameters.
When the AsyncFunction function is called with some arguments p1, p2, … , pn, body (where n might be 0, that is, there are no p arguments, and where body might also not be provided), the following steps are taken:
- Let C be the
active function object . - Let args be the argumentsList that was passed to this function by [[Call]] or [[Construct]].
- Return
CreateDynamicFunction (C, NewTarget,async , args).
27.7.2 Properties of the AsyncFunction Constructor

Let the range of a ReadSharedMemory, WriteSharedMemory, or ReadModifyWriteSharedMemory event be the Set of contiguous integers from its [[ByteIndex]] to [[ByteIndex]] + [[ElementSize]] - 1. Two events' ranges are equal when the events have the same [[Block]], and the ranges are element-wise equal. Two events' ranges are overlapping when the events have the same [[Block]], the ranges are not equal and their intersection is non-empty. Two events' ranges are disjoint when the events do not have the same [[Block]] or their ranges are neither equal nor overlapping.

The
29.11 Shared Memory Guidelines
The following are guidelines for ECMAScript programmers working with shared memory.
We recommend programs be kept data race free, i.e., make it so that it is impossible for there to be concurrent non-atomic operations on the same memory location. Data race free programs have interleaving semantics where each step in the evaluation semantics of each
More generally, even if a program is not data race free it may have predictable behaviour, so long as atomic operations are not involved in any data races and the operations that race all have the same access size. The simplest way to arrange for atomics not to be involved in races is to ensure that different memory cells are used by atomic and non-atomic operations and that atomic accesses of different sizes are not used to access the same cells at the same time. Effectively, the program should treat shared memory as strongly typed as much as possible. One still cannot depend on the ordering and timing of non-atomic accesses that race, but if memory is treated as strongly typed the racing accesses will not "tear" (bits of their values will not be mixed).
The following are guidelines for ECMAScript implementers writing compiler transformations for programs using shared memory.
It is desirable to allow most program transformations that are valid in a single-
Let an agent-order slice be the subset of the
Let possible read values of a read event be the set of all values of
Any transformation of an agent-order slice that is valid in the absence of shared memory is valid in the presence of shared memory, with the following exceptions.
Atomics are carved in stone: Program transformations must not cause the
SeqCst events in an agent-order slice to be reordered with itsUnordered operations, nor itsSeqCst operations to be reordered with each other, nor may a program transformation remove aSeqCst operation from theagent-order .(In practice, the prohibition on reorderings forces a compiler to assume that every
SeqCst operation is a synchronization and included in the finalmemory-order , which it would usually have to assume anyway in the absence of inter-agent program analysis. It also forces the compiler to assume that every call where the callee's effects on thememory-order are unknown may containSeqCst operations.)Reads must be stable: Any given shared memory read must only observe a single value in an execution.
(For example, if what is semantically a single read in the program is executed multiple times then the program is subsequently allowed to observe only one of the values read. A transformation known as rematerialization can violate this rule.)
Writes must be stable: All observable writes to shared memory must follow from program semantics in an execution.
(For example, a transformation may not introduce certain observable writes, such as by using read-modify-write operations on a larger location to write a smaller datum, writing a value to memory that the program could not have written, or writing a just-read value back to the location it was read from, if that location could have been overwritten by another
agent after the read.)Possible read values must be nonempty: Program transformations cannot cause the possible read values of a shared memory read to become empty.
(Counterintuitively, this rule in effect restricts transformations on writes, because writes have force in
memory model insofar as to be read by read events. For example, writes may be moved and coalesced and sometimes reordered between twoSeqCst operations, but the transformation may not remove every write that updates a location; some write must be preserved.)
Examples of transformations that remain valid are: merging multiple non-atomic reads from the same location, reordering non-atomic reads, introducing speculative non-atomic reads, merging multiple non-atomic writes to the same location, reordering non-atomic writes to different locations, and hoisting non-atomic reads out of loops even if that affects termination. Note in general that aliased TypedArrays make it hard to prove that locations are different.
The following are guidelines for ECMAScript implementers generating machine code for shared memory accesses.
For architectures with memory models no weaker than those of ARM or Power, non-atomic stores and loads may be compiled to bare stores and loads on the target architecture. Atomic stores and loads may be compiled down to instructions that guarantee sequential consistency. If no such instructions exist, memory barriers are to be employed, such as placing barriers on both sides of a bare store or load. Read-modify-write operations may be compiled to read-modify-write instructions on the target architecture, such as LOCK-prefixed instructions on x86, load-exclusive/store-exclusive instructions on ARM, and load-link/store-conditional instructions on Power.
Specifically, the
- Every atomic operation in the program is assumed to be necessary.
- Atomic operations are never rearranged with each other or with non-atomic operations.
- Functions are always assumed to perform atomic operations.
- Atomic operations are never implemented as read-modify-write operations on larger data, but as non-lock-free atomics if the platform does not have atomic operations of the appropriate size. (We already assume that every platform has normal memory access operations of every interesting size.)
Naive code generation uses these patterns:
- Regular loads and stores compile to single load and store instructions.
- Lock-free atomic loads and stores compile to a full (sequentially consistent) fence, a regular load or store, and a full fence.
- Lock-free atomic read-modify-write accesses compile to a full fence, an atomic read-modify-write instruction sequence, and a full fence.
- Non-lock-free atomics compile to a spinlock acquire, a full fence, a series of non-atomic load and store instructions, a full fence, and a spinlock release.
That mapping is correct so long as an atomic operation on an address range does not race with a non-atomic write or with an atomic operation of different size. However, that is all we need: the
A number of local improvements to those basic patterns are also intended to be legal:
- There are obvious platform-dependent improvements that remove redundant fences. For example, on x86 the fences around lock-free atomic loads and stores can always be omitted except for the fence following a store, and no fence is needed for lock-free read-modify-write instructions, as these all use LOCK-prefixed instructions. On many platforms there are fences of several strengths, and weaker fences can be used in certain contexts without destroying sequential consistency.
- Most modern platforms support lock-free atomics for all the data sizes required by ECMAScript atomics. Should non-lock-free atomics be needed, the fences surrounding the body of the atomic operation can usually be folded into the lock and unlock steps. The simplest solution for non-lock-free atomics is to have a single lock word per SharedArrayBuffer.
- There are also more complicated platform-dependent local improvements, requiring some code analysis. For example, two back-to-back fences often have the same effect as a single fence, so if code is generated for two atomic operations in sequence, only a single fence need separate them. On x86, even a single fence separating atomic stores can be omitted, as the fence following a store is only needed to separate the store from a subsequent load.

This annex describes various legacy features and other characteristics of web browser ECMAScript hosts. All of the language features and behaviours specified in this annex have one or more undesirable characteristics and in the absence of legacy usage would be removed from this specification. However, the usage of these features by large numbers of existing web pages means that web browsers must continue to support them. The specifications in this annex define the requirements for interoperable implementations of these legacy features.
These features are not considered part of the core ECMAScript language. Programmers should not use or assume the existence of these features and behaviours when writing new ECMAScript code. ECMAScript implementations are discouraged from implementing these features unless the implementation is part of a web browser or is required to run the same legacy ECMAScript code that web browsers encounter.

C The Strict Mode of ECMAScript
The strict mode restriction and exceptions
implements,interface,let,package,private,protected,public,static, andyieldare reserved words withinstrict mode code . (12.6.2 ).- A conforming implementation, when processing
strict mode code , must not extend, as described inB.1.1 , the syntax ofNumericLiteral to includeLegacyOctalIntegerLiteral DecimalIntegerLiteral to includeNonOctalDecimalIntegerLiteral - A conforming implementation, when processing
strict mode code , may not extend the syntax ofEscapeSequence to includeLegacyOctalEscapeSequence NonOctalDecimalEscapeSequence B.1.2 . - Assignment to an undeclared identifier or otherwise unresolvable reference does not create a property in the
global object . When a simple assignment occurs withinstrict mode code , itsLeftHandSideExpression must not evaluate to an unresolvable Reference. If it does aReferenceError exception is thrown (6.2.4.6 ). TheLeftHandSideExpression also may not be a reference to adata property with the attribute value { [[Writable]]:false }, to anaccessor property with the attribute value { [[Set]]:undefined }, nor to a non-existent property of an object whose [[Extensible]] internal slot has the valuefalse . In these cases aTypeErrorexception is thrown (13.15 ). - An
IdentifierReference with theStringValue "eval" or"arguments" may not appear as theLeftHandSideExpression of an Assignment operator (13.15 ) or of anUpdateExpression (13.4 ) or as theUnaryExpression operated upon by a Prefix Increment (13.4.4 ) or a Prefix Decrement (13.4.5 ) operator. - Arguments objects for strict functions define a non-configurable
accessor property "callee" which throws aTypeError exception on access (10.4.4.6 ). - Arguments objects for strict functions do not dynamically share their
array-indexed property values with the corresponding formal parameter bindings of their functions. (10.4.4 ). - For strict functions, if an arguments object is created the binding of the local identifier
argumentsto the arguments object is immutable and hence may not be the target of an assignment expression. (10.2.11 ). - It is a
SyntaxError if theStringValue of aBindingIdentifier is"eval" or"arguments" withinstrict mode code (13.1.1 ). - Strict mode eval code cannot instantiate variables or functions in the variable environment of the caller to eval. Instead, a new variable environment is created and that environment is used for declaration binding instantiation for the eval code (
19.2.1 ). - If
this is evaluated withinstrict mode code , then thethis value is not coerced to an object. Athis value ofundefined ornull is not converted to theglobal object and primitive values are not converted to wrapper objects. Thethis value passed via a function call (including calls made usingFunction.prototype.applyandFunction.prototype.call) do not coerce the passedthis value to an object (10.2.1.2 ,20.2.3.1 ,20.2.3.3 ). - When a
deleteoperator occurs withinstrict mode code , aSyntaxError is thrown if itsUnaryExpression is a direct reference to a variable, function argument, or function name (13.5.1.1 ). - When a
deleteoperator occurs withinstrict mode code , aTypeError is thrown if the property to be deleted has the attribute { [[Configurable]]:false } or otherwise cannot be deleted (13.5.1.2 ). Strict mode code may not include aWithStatement . The occurrence of aWithStatement in such a context is aSyntaxError (14.11.1 ).- It is a
SyntaxError if aCatchParameter occurs withinstrict mode code andBoundNames ofCatchParameter contains eitherevalorarguments(14.15.1 ). - It is a
SyntaxError if the sameBindingIdentifier appears more than once in theFormalParameters of astrict function . An attempt to create such a function using a Function, Generator, or AsyncFunctionconstructor is aSyntaxError (15.2.1 ,20.2.1.1.1 ). - An implementation may not extend, beyond that defined in this specification, the meanings within strict functions of properties named
"caller" or"arguments" of function instances.

String.prototype.match and String.prototype.replace was incorrect for cases where the pattern argument was a RegExp value whose global flag is set. The previous specifications stated that for each attempt to match the pattern, if lastIndex did not change it should be incremented by 1. The correct behaviour is that lastIndex should be incremented by one only if the pattern matched the empty String.
Array.prototype.sort. ECMAScript 2015 specifies that such as value is treated as if

Space_Separator (Zs) category and thus treated as whitespace in ECMAScript 2015, to be moved to the Format (Cf) category (as of Unicode 6.3.0). This causes whitespace-sensitive methods to behave differently. For example, "\u180E".trim().length was 0 in previous editions, but 1 in ECMAScript 2016 and later. Additionally, ECMAScript 2017 mandated always using the latest version of the Unicode standard.

String.prototype.localeCompare function must treat Strings that are canonically equivalent according to the Unicode standard as being identical. In previous editions implementations were permitted to ignore canonical equivalence and could instead use a bit-wise comparison.
String.prototype.trim method is defined to recognize white space code points that may exist outside of the Unicode BMP. However, as of Unicode 7 no such code points are defined. In previous editions such code points would not have been recognized as white space.
Atomics.wake has been renamed to Atomics.notify to prevent confusion with Atomics.wait.
await was reduced, which could create an observable difference in resolution order between a then() call and an await expression.
G Colophon
This specification is authored on GitHub in a plaintext source format called Ecmarkup. Ecmarkup is an HTML and Markdown dialect that provides a framework and toolset for authoring ECMAScript specifications in plaintext and processing the specification into a full-featured HTML rendering that follows the editorial conventions for this document. Ecmarkup builds on and integrates a number of other formats and technologies including Grammarkdown for defining syntax and Ecmarkdown for authoring algorithm steps. PDF renderings of this specification are produced by printing the HTML rendering to a PDF.
Prior editions of this specification were authored using Word—the Ecmarkup source text that formed the basis of this edition was produced by converting the ECMAScript 2015 Word document to Ecmarkup using an automated conversion tool.
